LC SmartGlass^™

LC SmartGlass™

Applications

Enjoy your privacy at the press of a button! Activating the on/off-switch turns the opaque LC SmartGlass™ into a transparent LC SmartGlass™. LC SmartGlass™ offers architects and planners creative design options (screens, energy-saving windows, bath / shower partitions, privacy screens, overhead lighting, and many other ideas, as well). It is also suited for use in technical applications, like projection displays, for instance.

Technology When turned off, the liquid crystal molecules assume random positions so that they scatter incident light and the LC SmartGlass™ becomes non-transparent (opaque).

When turned on, the liquid crystal molecules align and the LC SmartGlass™ turns transparent.
