Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007006781A1] The invention concerns glazings comprising a rain sensor. The inventive glazings consist of at least one rigid sheet (9) exposed to the rain, glazing comprising a capacitive rain sensor (4) which is not on the surface exposed to the rain, the sensor including electrodes (11, 12) made of a thin conductive material, a material substantially transparent at such thickness, said conductive material only covering a limited part of the glazing, and essentially corresponding to the electrodes of the sensor. The inventive glazings are used in particular for motor vehicles.
