This was installed in smaller trains called Light Rapid Transit (LRT) in Singapore since 1999. They were installed as trains sometimes will be close enough to apartment buildings that the glass on these trains will turn opaque to prevent people from peeping into those apartments.

I see comments saying 'old technology happened years ago' so? This is the kind of stuff we watched in futuristic scifi movies that made the future look cool! Even if it's 'old technology' it's not a mainstream interior choice for the public and has probably had technical advancements since. If its promoted and sold I bet people would love it. It looks futuristic. I see this on all home windows around the world! Goodbye curtains in the future hahah

The sliding doors to the ICU room I'm in right now have this glass. The switch is somewhere in the tracks to the door I'm assuming (I have a *very* limited understanding of how electrical circuits work) because when the doors get slid almost all the way closed, they change from frosted to transparent so the medical staff can check up without being too disruptive. And even though this technology isn't new obviously, I've been watching these for the past two days in awe because it's my first time seeing them. But then again, it was alsoy sister in-law's first time seeing them, but she's not as amazed at how things work like I am. Just *that* they work as they're supposed to.

so the glass is transparent when theres an electric current going. (in 2030) “Dont forget to turn off the windows!”

Saw a version of this somewhere in the 2019 long / extended wheelbase Rolls Royce. Looks cool in it, flick a switch and instant privacy while being chauffeured.

Finally, I had this idea when I first tingled with one of the first LCD screens for calculators...(in the eighties of last century) They had a little plastic film over it to see the crystals. when turning it 90 degrees on top of the LCD, it became black. Later, as I understood, this plastic film properties were incorporated in the LCD module. That's when it became obviously that they could make whole screens black just by a little electricity... Too bad I did not have the wish nor the funding nor the material and the proper knowledge at the time to go commercial on this. Glad someone else did. Hopefully we can enjoy sunscreens in the future.....

What’s the U-value for the glass used in those windows? What about transmittance? Those factors are also important. Videos like this are nice, but it would also be nice to include some relevant stats about the performance of the products on display. It makes for a more transparent showcase (pun not intended) and more likely that someone would buy the product- assuming the goal is to drive sales here.

Interesting.... I think that the glass is basically a LCD screen panel but with neater wiring, fewer pixels and without the back light....

This is such a great technology!

I remember the original Star Tours at Disneyland having this tech. Next to the security droid in the queue, there was a transparent divider wall made up of squares that would randomly switch between clear and frosted, just like in the video. And that was in 1987! I'm surprised the tech has been so slow to advance and see widespread adoption... does anyone with more knowledge of it know what factors might be holding it back?

So is the default (no power) state opaque? Or will it be see through if I smash the right part? Inversely, could I apply my own power to spy through it?

Judging by the video, the glass seems to change from transparent to translucent, but not opaque which would allow no light through, like a brick wall. Opaque would be good for bedrooms and darkrooms. I hope progress can be made in that direction.

Looks cool, but it is only for INSIDE use. i installed one on my window instead ob blinds, and during summer it melted. Plastic base used for those things could not handle temperatures above 30C and melted.

I remember this glass from Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory back in the day. Good times

This tech has been out for years. At least a few years before Splinter Cell Chaos Theory came out. They had a level in there that used this glass type in an office and could be used as a stealth option

I'm sure they must have updated this, but the underlying tech is decades-old. Moreover, for $130/ft I'd rather have a 4k TV with a webcam to display the other side. I can't imagine the translucent oled panels costing much more either.
