A vehicle-based wireless communication system includes an interior rearview mirror assembly having an interior mirror reflective element, a housing for the reflective element and a mirror-mounted communication system. The apparatus includes circuit Breakers, Solid State Relays, Controller Area Network physical, transport and logical interface which enables the apparatus to connect or interface with power sources and to the vehicle’s multiplex bus. Methods are used to improve the compression and transport as hybrid DPCM and a dynamic shift of clip range of prediction errors. Each filter outputs data representing a same location, but with a kernel path different than for the other filters. The microprint layer, the at least one layer with repeating patterns having colorshift properties, and the fluorescent layer with repeating second patterns are arranged between the clear film layer and the transfer tape adhesive layer.
