What is this under the mirror?

Does anyone know what this is below the passenger door mirror? The drivers side has a gap or opening without the "sensor". It's a 2011 model year XKR X150

That looks like a Driver-Side mirror to me.

My guess is temp sensor. Easy to test if you heat it up a little with your fingers you should be able to see an increase in temperature on the screen.

I was more curious as to if it was either the Left specifically in ALL cars, or dedicated to the "passenger" door, regardless of which side that happens to be.
