Default Land Rover Discovery 2 TD5 - 2001

Could anybody let me know what is the purpose of the small sensor located centrally on the dashboard of the Discovery 2. Is this alarm related, motion detection and if so how does it function?

Climate control system.
Sunlight sensor
The sunlight sensor consists of two diodes that provide the ATC ECU with inputs of light intensity, one as sensed

solar heating effect on vehicle occupants. The sensor is installed in the centre of the fascia upper surface.
