Opaque Smart Glass installed switchable smart film on glass doors at the Hilton Newark Airport in New Jersey, creating a versatile glass surface that could provide privacy while also functioning as a projection display. The installation demonstrates how PDLC smart film can transform ordinary architectural glass into a multifunctional feature for hospitality and commercial environments.
When switched to its opaque state, the smart film creates a frosted surface capable of displaying projected video and presentation content. As shown in this installation, the hotel can project large-format imagery directly across the glass doors, turning an otherwise transparent architectural element into an engaging visual display.
When projection or privacy is no longer needed, the smart film can be switched back to its transparent state, restoring visibility through the glass. This eliminates the need for a permanent projection wall or screen and allows the same glass installation to serve multiple purposes.
For hotels, conference centers, corporate offices, showrooms, and event spaces, smart film can provide an innovative combination of glass transparency, on-demand privacy, and projection capability while maintaining a clean architectural aesthetic.
