Problem
Traditional static glass windows offer limited control over solar heat gain and light transmission, leading to increased energy consumption for heating and cooling, as well as potential discomfort for building occupants due to glare and excessive heat. Existing dynamic glass solutions can be expensive to install and maintain, hindering widespread adoption.
Solution
IR Dynamics offers Solid-State Phase-Change (SSPC) materials that enable dynamic glass to automatically adjust its properties in response to external conditions, such as sunlight intensity and temperature. This nanotechnology-based approach allows windows to modulate the amount of solar energy and visible light entering a building, minimizing energy loss and optimizing occupant comfort. By reducing the need for artificial lighting, heating, and cooling, IR Dynamics' dynamic glass significantly lowers greenhouse gas emissions associated with building operations. The SSPC materials are designed for cost-effective integration into new and existing window systems.
Target Audience
Primary customers include building owners, architects, and construction companies seeking to improve energy efficiency and occupant comfort in commercial and residential buildings.
