What is Smartglass?
We define ‘smartglass’ as any transparent medium having structural modifications or embedded technologies which augment the normal behaviour of glass.
These augmentations can manifest themselves as surface coatings or films, internal laminations or electronic circuits embedded into the glass.
Examples of technologies covered include: polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLC), suspended particle devices (SPD), electrophoretic, electrochromic, photochromic, thermochromic, microfluidics, augmented-reality (AR) wearables, holographics, smart mirrors, micro-optics, RF-shielding and transparent photovoltaics.
