Objective

The main idea of the project is to develop an active film for smart windows with the inkjet method, and to apply it to a building envelope component. SMARTBLIND will thus develop an autonomous smart device. 

The four main objectives are:

• To reduce weight by 50% compared to glass window, while offering transparency and flexibility
• To improve the optical response time of windows while enabling the switching of large panes.
• To integrate an electronic control system with an embedded power source.
• To guarantee a low-cost industrial solution adaptable to large and shaped surfaces.
