Vision Systems Features Improved SPD-Smart Solar Self-Powered Dimmable Aircraft Cabin Window at 2014 MEBA in Dubai, UAE
Marketwired - Mon Dec 08, 7:05AM CST
Today at the 2014 MEBA trade show, Research Frontiers (NASDAQ: REFR) licensee Vision Systems unveiled a new version of Energia, an SPD-Smart electronically dimmable window (EDW) capable of producing its own energy from the sun or from artificial light. Because of patented SPD-SmartGlass film inside, you can touch the window and instantly change its tint within 1-2 seconds. This is a substantial difference over the minutes it currently takes passengers to change the tint of their EDWs on aircraft using electrochromic technology. Also no wiring to the aircraft's electrical system is necessary. The breakthrough product by Vision Systems produces more energy than the prior generation -- 20 watts per square meter -- and comes with a USB port to charge a smart phone/device as well as a reading light.
