the Invention was created under the leadership of Valery Lapanik, reported on the University’s website, “has no analogues in the post-Soviet space.” True, say the authors of “smart Windows”, a similar technology is known in China, but there it is much more expensive and inferior to the Belarusian model for long-term use.
It is the scientists explain, the creation of “LCD panels that, depending on the external factors of transparent pass into the matte and Vice versa.” A window controlled by such an alternating electric field coming from the special unit. “It delivers the required signal for switching the panel from one state to another”, – told in the Belarusian state University.
the Word, according to the inventors, they can be used as an alternative to ordinary glass. First, the innovative design protects the room from sunlight, the ultraviolet radiation. Second, it partially blocks infrared and streams. This allows the user to abandon the usual blinds.
in addition, the development can serve as a Bulletin Board, replacing the usual price tags in shopping malls. And it will allow operators to remotely change the value and product name on the trading network with a centralized control unit on the computer.
But not limited to the ability of new scientists. She is willing to serve as a car sun visor, or in the display on the control panel. When struck by sunlight, explain the developers, there is an automatic darkening spots on the visor where it looks for the driver. And this feature is supported by electronics that monitor eye position and a software control unit.
it Should be noted and the durability of such Windows, which exceeds ten years, their improved resistance to temperature and economical use of electricity. But the scope of “smart Windows” can be expanded through the use of them in offices and even in airplanes.
