How does switchable smart glass work?
Smart glass contains a liquid crystal film between two layers of glass. When power is applied, the crystals align and the glass is clear. When power is off, they scatter light and the glass turns opaque white. The change takes seconds and is controlled by a switch, sensor or building system.
What happens to smart glass if the power fails?
Most PDLC smart glass turns opaque when power is lost, because it needs power to stay clear. The room keeps its privacy and still receives diffused light. The glass remains safe laminated glass in either state, and it returns to clear automatically when power is restored.
