I have studied,as one of the uses of polaroids is, that it can be fitted in the head lights of cars and other vehicles to eliminate the glare. This will certainly act as a boon to the motorists and result in considerable reduction of road accidents during the night time.
I have also learned that Edwin Land had pioneered in this field as early as 1930's and took sincere efforts to design such polaroid sheets through his company the Polaroid corporation and tried to obtain patent for promoting it for commercial use, but only unsuccessfully.
Now with the tremendous advancement in technology, are the modern cars coming to the market fitted with any such anti glare headlights? Has any country such as US or UK made it mandatory for fitting such glasses to the headlights of automobiles to avoid accidents?
In India,whenever I ride on my bike during night hours, I used to think of such scenario, facing the annoying glare of headlights of the vehicles coming from the opposite direction, causing potential risk to the drivers.
