Smart glass

High tech colored glass
In 1992, in Los Angeles University Of California Researchers from Tinted glass It can change color in some compounds. The researchers first used a solution for the production of glass, and then added highly selective enzymes or proteins that can change color in some compounds. When the solution is solidified, glass filaments are formed around the large protein. [1]
Smart glass has enough holes to hold small gas molecules, such as oxygen and carbon monoxide Molecular entry. They react with proteins, causing color changes. The intelligent glass can be used to monitor the gases in the atmosphere. If made light-guide fiber It can also monitor the gas concentration in the blood stream.

application
This kind of glass is made of Principle of electrochromism make. It is very popular in the architectural decoration of some cities in the United States and Germany. The feature of smart glass is that when the sun is at noon, the windows facing south will automatically darken with the increase of solar radiation. At the same time, other windows facing south in the shadow will start to light up. After installing smart windows, people do not need to add dark colors or machines to block the scorching sun lens hood Has. In severe winter, the intelligence facing north window Can provide 70% of solar radiation Quantity diffuse The warmth of the sun. At the same time, you can also install Photochromic glass 25% of buildings need less energy for heating and cooling, 60% for lighting and 30% for peak power.
British scientists are developing smart glass for future cars, which will not only beautify, but also Hyundai Motor Add new functions. These glasses are:
Tinted glass This is a kind of intelligent glass that can control sunlight. It can block 84% of sunlight, while standard colorless 4mm thick glass can only block 11% of sunlight. If the car is equipped with such glass, it can protect the fibers and decorations from fading.
Shatterproof glass, which is mainly used for side windows. It is related to windshield It is also strong and firm, and it is not easy for thieves to break the window and steal things.
The image glass, the route navigation, marking and information system in the future car, can be directly obtained by the driver from the windshield, and can also see the scenery 1 mile away in fog and rain weather.
Infrared glass, which can automatically turn on the windshield wiper in rainy days, and change the wiper speed according to the rainfall.
Rain proof and light proof glass. The glass surface is treated with new technology to make it easy to waterproof and reduce glass reflected light Number of. In addition to the window glass, this kind of glass is mainly used in various instrument masks in the car to prevent the reflection from the windshield Light reflection Get into the driver's sight.
Embedded in the radio glass, which can embed the radio antenna into the glass, and can also Cellular telephone Or TV and other devices are embedded into the glass, so that the car is more beautiful and the overall image of the car will not be damaged by the antenna. [2]
