Automated control of visual light transmission through one or more vehicle windows is provided, which includes providing a control system for controlling visual light transmission through the window, where the window includes smart glass, with visual light transmission through the window being dynamically adjustable by the control system. The control system receives a video stream from at least one video camera associated with the vehicle, and analyzes the video stream for a specified event. Based on detecting the event, the control system triggers an action to adjust the visual light transmission through the window.
