[0015] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for detecting an automotive electronic rearview mirror, comprising the following steps:

[0017] Step 1) Install a laser transmitter with a flexible film pressure sensor on the bottom surface on the monitor screen of the automotive electronic rearview mirror, monitor the measured value of the pressure sensor through the control system to ensure that the bottom surface of the laser transmitter is completely in contact with the screen. At this time, the laser emitted by the laser transmitter is along the normal direction of the screen, such as Figure 4 As shown in the normal N in .

[0018] The pressure sensor can upload data to the control system via WiFi. The control system displays relevant data and a pressure cloud map. The user can determine whether the bottom surface of the laser transmitter is completely in contact with the screen based on the pressure cloud map.

[0019] The preferred laser transmitter is as follows Figure 2 shown.

[0020] Step 2) Install the laser receiver with a flexible film pressure sensor on the bottom surface on the detection device, and similarly monitor the measurement value of the pressure sensor through the control system to ensure that the bottom surface of the laser receiver is completely in contact with the detection device, using the same monitoring method as above.

[0021] The preferred laser receiver is as follows Figure 2 shown.

[0022] Step 3) Input the viewing angle of the screen specified by the manufacturer of the electronic rearview mirror into the control system software, and the control system adjusts the emission angle of the laser transmitter according to the viewing angle, such as Figure 4 As shown in θ and Φ.

[0023] Step 4) Adjust the position of the detection device until the laser receiver on it receives the laser emitted by the laser transmitter, such as Figure 4 As shown at point P in the figure, the automobile electronic rearview mirror is then inspected at this position by the inspection equipment.

[0024] Based on the viewing angle requirements of automotive electronic rearview mirror manufacturers, this method cleverly utilizes a laser transmitter and receiver to quickly and accurately position the testing equipment, facilitating subsequent testing of automotive electronic rearview mirrors in laboratories.
