SPD-SmartGlass allows users to instantly and precisely control the amount of light, glare and heat coming through windows and many other products used every day, and can be used to make homes and buildings more energy efficient.

Hitachi Chemical Co., Ltd., a licensee of Research Frontiers, produced the SPD-Smart film used by Innovative Glass for this major project.

The completion of this SPD-SmartGlass installation is a milestone for the smart glass industry and sets a new standard of being able to produce very large architectural-sized electrified glass panels containing SPD-Smart film.
