2011 DTS Platinum, which sensor or camera is for which system. I think the big black box to the right of the rear view is the LDW camera correct.
What is the one in the middle between the rear view and the glass?
I think the Intellibeam eye is on the back of the rear view, no?

Just want to know which is which

You are correct that the big black box to the right of the rearview mirror is the LDW camera. You can see the camera through the glass.

The box that is attached to the rearview mirror mount is the Intellibeam system. There is a small camera behind the little window.

On the back side of the mirror itself is the auto-dimming mirror ambient light sensor. It detects the light levels outside to determine if it's dark enough to warrant dimming the rearview mirror. If it's dark enough ... and there are lights coming from the rear (i.e. from a car behind you) shining on a 2nd sensor located on the front side of the mirror (facing you), then it will darken the mirror accordingly.

I've attached pics ... hope they help.
