Yes, any aircraft can be retrofitted with SPD-Smart windows. Just complete the “Project Inquiry Form” found in the main menu “Contact” section, to learn more about SPD-Smart aircraft products. Be [...]

The SPD film layer in SPD-Smart automotive windows could be called a “light valve.” In the film, droplets of liquid suspension are distributed. Light-absorbing microscopic particles are dispersed [...]

Improved energy efficiency by allowing users to view the contents of the appliance without having to open its door Aesthetically appealing design possibilities for OEMs and their customers.

They are instantly and precisely adaptable to a wide range of user preferences and environmental conditions Can provide glare reduction without the loss of view Can be integrated with [...]

Protects artifacts that already are on display. Showcases artifacts once considered too light-sensitive to exhibit. Extends the duration of exhibits of light-sensitive artifacts. Provides more [...]

Yes – SPD-SmartGlass blocks 99%+ of harmful UV light at all times, thus providing an additional level of artifact protection. Fabrications of SPD-SmartGlass that block UV light up to 400 nm are [...]

SPD-SmartGlass allows visible light to reach artifacts only when people want to view them. At all other times SPD-SmartGlass blocks visible light and protects artifacts.

The light-protecting benefits of SPD-SmartGlass can be enjoyed for new cases, frames and partitions. In addition, any existing museum products can be retrofitted with SPD-Smart windows. Just [...]

Museum conservators, curators and private collectors can use SPD-SmartGlass for a variety of artifact-protecting solutions including freestanding, wall and tabletop display cases, picture frames [...]

Based on patented SPD technology developed by Research Frontiers, SPD-SmartGlass optimally protects artifacts by limiting their light-exposure only to those times when people want to view them. [...]

Yes. SPD-Smart products block 99% of UV light at all times. This helps protect furnishings and artwork from fading and degradation.

SPD-Smart marine/rail products are powered using AC voltage. In DC-powered environments, a simple converter (CHECK) is typically installed just before the glazings. All SPD-Smart products require [...]

Interior furnishings and artwork can be highly susceptible to damage from excessive light-exposure. This damage is irreversible. SPD-Smart marine/rail products offer extraordinary protection in a [...]

Infinite. Similar to how a dimmer switch regulates the brightness of a light, by simply adjusting the voltage to the SPD-Smart product, you quickly and precisely “tune” the tint to any level you want.

SPD-Smart products change their light-transmission properties in 1-3 seconds and they do this for glazings of any size. Thus, in just a few seconds, you can adjust the tint of your SPD-Smart [...]

The SPD film layer in SPD-Smart marine/rail products is called a “light valve.” Within the film are millions of microscopic particles. The particles are randomly oriented due to Brownian motion [...]
