A key point worth noting regarding smart glass is that it’s pitched as an all-in-one solution to an extent — you don’t need to pay for windows and window coverings such as fancy blinds. “Today you must have glass, blinds, drapes, and, depending on the building, automated shades that try to make it easier for users to have control of the sunlight coming into buildings,” he continued. Then there are other potential longer-term savings, such as air conditioning and other electricity-consuming contraptions typically used to regulate a room’s temperature.

Research Frontiers patented SPD-SmartGlass technology is the same best-selling smart window technology that can be found on various car models from Daimler, McLaren Automotive, and other auto makers. The MAGIC SKY CONTROL feature, which is now in use on tens of thousands of Mercedes-Benz SLs, SLC/SLKs, Maybach and S-Class models around the world, and more recently on four announced McLaren models, uses patented SPD-SmartGlass technology developed by Research Frontiers to turn the roof transparent by electrically aligning tiny particles in a thin film within the glass. With the touch of a button, drivers and passengers can instantly change the tint of their roof to help keep out harsh sunlight and heat, and create an open-air feeling even when the sunroof is closed. Glass or plastic using Research Frontiers’ patented SPD-SmartGlass technology effectively blocks UV and infrared rays in both clear and darkly tinted modes, helping keep the cabin cooler, and protecting passengers and interiors while also enhancing security inside the vehicle. These benefits become even more important when a car uses large surface areas of glass, especially in warm climates.

Tom and the bartender are so involved in their discussion that they don’t notice when a cigar someone had thrown into the waste basket behind the bar causes it to burst into flames, which quickly engulf the entire bar.

Its newer kin, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, gave some of our test systems fits, including the Ice Lake. We noted that other review outlets who were testing the Ice Lake system alongside us had better luck with the title. But the fact that the Iris Plus gets you to playable frame rates at low settings and 720p, and even close at 1080p, is an accomplishment with this kind of muscular game. The deltas between it and the AMD solution is significant, too.

According to Gentex, the EDW supplier, the units will feature a thin-film coating for elimination of harmful IR and UV light, and low maintenance and operation costs.

I had the unique privilege of studying painting with Tom at Rutgers University from 2004–2006. MFA programs are similar to summer camps: structured activities and a lot of silly drama. However, things would get real, real quick, when Tom came by the studio. He could laser focus his attention on a minuscule nearly forgotten passage of a painting, making you realize its inherent potential. Or, he would pick out one painting and say that you needed to make 25 more just like it, call it a show. When I had my MFA thesis exhibition Tom walked in and looked long and hard at what I had done. We talked at length about my paintings. As we were leaving he walked up to a small cactus in a strange pot that I had placed atop a pedestal in the center of the gallery. He pointed at it and said, “Olson, I didn’t know you were so insecure.” We looked at each other dead in the eye. “Well, now you know.” I replied.

When a voltage is applied, the tungsten oxide coating darkens, and when the polarity of the voltage is reversed, the coating lightens. The lightening and darkening process doesn’t happen instantly, with windows measuring around 2.5 square meters (27 sq ft) potentially taking up to 20 minutes for the process to complete.

“Our collaboration with Avery Dennison on the Vela Display System is to get people thinking about projection technology in a whole new light. The NEC PX1004UL which is used with Vela Display is a powerful installation laser projector with a laser/phosphor light source that makes it perfect for all-new applications,” said Dave Adams, partner programme manager at NEC Display Solutions of America. The overall experience is being driven by software from YCD Multimedia, a global provider of digital signage software solutions.

This first time I met Nozkowski was at the opening of another Sachs-curated show, this time of Herbert Waide Hemphill Jr’s folk art collection at the Noyes Museum in New Jersey. At the time, I was working at the Philadelphia Museum of Art as an art handler, and we had just finished installing an Anselm Kiefer show. A few of us from the museum made the trip to the Noyes opening. When we arrived, standing in the middle of the gallery was Thomas Nozkowski, the man responsible for all of those wonderful paintings. As we approached, he was welcoming and openly curious about us. He asked us if we were artists, what we did, inquired about the current exhibition at the museum, and our thoughts on Kiefer. A few moments later, he was telling us a joke.

We ran the Ice Lake test machine on almost all of our benchmarks, as time allowed, in first 15-watt and then 25-watt mode. Logistics and time constraints kept us from running in 15-watt mode in a couple of instances, which we’ll point out below. But, in most cases, you can see the deltas between the two modes pretty clearly.
