    Smart glass

    We fulfill your vision of the future.

    Transparent vehicle display guide

    Smart glass creates new opportunities

    Smart glass or switchable glass is an electrically controlled glass that dims or brightens by pressing a button. This smart innovation takes privacy fully to a new level. In addition, transparent displays and electrically heated windows are smart solutions that bring new features to e.g. vehicle glazing. Smart glass is fabricated by laminating the smart technology film between two transparent high-performance plastic sheets with TPU films.

    Plastic laminating

    Custom shading with switchable smart glass

    We use Gauzy's SPD and PDLC technologies to turn laminated windows into smart glass. Gauzy's smart films create dynamic, light-controlled spaces for demanding applications. Shading films are an excellent solution for example for machines or vehicles operating in sunny or hot conditions.

    SPD film blocks 99.5% of light, allowing windows to dim and tint without blocking the view. The solution create comfort and creates an optimal shading choice for exterior windows across industries. PDLC film can change glazing from opaque to clear providing privacy and temperature control. It can also be used as a  projection screen or whiteboard. 

    Transparent displays

    We fabricate transparent displays by laminating transparent display technology into window or glazing solutions. The transparent displays connect physical and digital turning windows into interactive displays. Transparent displays can be laminated into windshields, side windows, sunroofs, and doors to show dynamic information about a vehicle or machine, for example.

    The technology enables manufacturers to build safer vehicles that improve ergonomics, situation awareness and user experience for drivers, operators, and passengers. Machine operators can see vital information while keeping their view on their work. The transparent display can provide information such as speed, the engine's temperature, fuel level, or other data.

    Electrically heated windows

    Heated windows provide advantages to applications such as forestry machines, tractors and earth moving machines operating in demanding conditions. Heated windows contain wires that defrost the window, and the heating system works at the push of a button. They are manufactured by laminating an electrically conductive film between polycarbonate or acrylic sheets. The heating does not impair the optical properties of a laminated window. 

    For example, windows of machines that operate in snowy conditions can be cleared with the system. The operator has better visibility in extreme weather conditions, including rain, snow and fog. In addition, heated windows are quieter than running the heater to defrost the windows.

    Benefits of smart glass

    • Optimized light control
    • Adjustable privacy
    • Improved operator ergonomics
    • Improved situation awareness
    • Improved user experience
    • Customized glazing solutions

    Applications for smart glass

    • Safety glazing for vehicles
    • Yacht glazing
    • Defence and security applications
    • Applications that are willing to reach the benefits of smart technologies
