LC Privacy Glass is produced by laminating two pieces of glass over an electrically switchable LC Privacy film. This film contains a mixture of Liquid Crystals and white polymers which diffuse and scatter the light when in the Unpowered / Default / Privacy mode. When electricity is applied to the film, the Liquid Crystal particles align and allow light and vision to pass through to the opposite side, thereby making it transparent.

Your window is user-controlled with a simple wall switch that is provided with your window purchase. (eGlass Windows are also compatible with other smart switches and technologies including mobile and voice-control devices such as Alexa and Google Home.)

When switched ON, glass is Transparent — when switched OFF, glass is Private.

In its transparent state, switchable smart windows never reach 100% clarity. There is always a certain amount of “haze” or cloudiness when in the “On” state. This varies by manufacturer, manufacturing processes and materials, and can be minimized by the lighting conditions and environment it is viewed in. (See "Tips for Minimizing Haze" on the "DOWNLOADABLES" page.
