Apple patents sunroof for electric vehicle
Apple has received a patent for a car sunroof from the US Patent and Trademark Office. The sunroof, which has features such as a sunroof and variable opacity glass, will allow the driver to adjust the roof transparency.
It is stated that Apple will produce an openable glass roof unlike other automakers. The company’s explanation for the patent is as follows:
It contains a window and a variable translucency area defined on the window. The variable translucency area is designed to be controllable to allow the desired degree of light penetration through the glass. A movable panel assembly can move between the closed position and the open position.
Analysts stated that all features developed for Apple Car, especially the leaked sunroof patent, can be controlled with Siri and CarPlay. According to recent reports, it has emerged that Apple continues to develop and test a new self-driving vehicle system.
Apple lost its employees working in the automobile division to different companies. Therefore, it is estimated that Apple Car will be released in 3 years at the earliest.
