Claim 20:
21. A dynamic positioning control system comprising:
a transparent or semi-transparent substrate configured for a vehicle;
a dimming controller;
a plurality of electrodes operatively connected to the dimming controller configured to dim one or more areas on or within the substrate within an overall electrochromic dimming-capable field area; and
a color sensor operatively connected to the dimming controller;
wherein the dimming controller is configured to cause the one or more areas to be dimmed to a particular transmissivity level of a plurality of different transmissivity levels based on:
a detected light angle and/or detected light magnitude; and
a vehicle speed;

wherein the detected light angle and/or the detected light magnitude is from light received from an exterior of the vehicle;
wherein the dimming controller is configured to, when a vehicle speed is below a predetermined speed, not allow the particular transmissivity level of the dimmed one or more areas to fall below a predetermined threshold based on color sensor detection data obtained by the color sensor; and
wherein the dimming controller is configured to, when the vehicle speed is at or above the predetermined threshold, allow the particular transmissivity level of the dimmed one or more areas to fall below the predetermined threshold.
