Eco Factor: Solar-powered smart windows to cool your home at the touch of a button.
No matter how small or big your apartment is, windows always play a significant role in keeping indoor air clean and breathable at all times. Apart from ventilating your interiors, windows also let in sunshine, which is a boon in some places and in winters but a menace otherwise, as the more sunlit your house is, the more energy will be required to bring the indoor temperature down to normal.
The best way to keep your interiors cool when required is to make use of smart windows, which can tint the window when sun starts heating the interiors. SmarterShade, as the product is named, is a framed pane, similar to a storm window, which can fit into the existing window track or frame. The system is made from a semi-rigid, scratch resistant plastic that has the ability to tint the window at the touch of a button.
Windows can go from nearly clear to dark in just seconds and all that is done using the same energy it’s designed to block. The remote-controlled system is easy to install and the developers claim that anyone with the slightest of DIY skills can install the system in minutes.
The Dark Side:
The system looks good when it’s not used at full potential. If the window is made to go completely dark, the interior space will require conventional energy for illumination.
