What is Smart Film?
Posted by Florida Window Films on 3:07 PM
Smart Film, also referred to as switchable film, is a state-of-the-art PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) film that allows the user to control the opacity of the film by applying electricity. Users can control the film through a variety of switches. Smart film can be controlled by temperature, light, timer, remote control, dimmer and can also be operated through a users smart phone or tablet when connected to a home automation system
Most Smart Films operate at 50v-110v allowing an easy retro-fit into an existing space. Smart Films are a great solution for conference rooms, executive offices, lobbies, healthcare facilities, home and residential, bathrooms, kitchens, room partitions, skylights, windows, retail, corporate centers and more.
Coming soon is a low-voltage option for automotive, aviation and marine applications.

How Does Smart Film Work?
When Smart Films are not powered, the liquid crystals in the film are dispersed, causing the film to become opaque. When power is applied to the film, the liquid crystals "line up" and make the film transparent. Smart Film can be applied directly onto existing windows and offers unparalleled control of light, UV, and infrared and offers functions such as security, privacy and advertising. | ||||
