Dynamic Rear Projection Glass Surfaces

Transform switchable smart glass and films into ultra-high-definition, high-contrast rear projection screens on demand.

FROM CLEAR ARCHITECTURAL GLASS TO ULTRA HD MULTIMEDIA SCREEN

Our liquid crystal technology allows any architectural glazed partition to act as transparent glass and, with a single touch, switch to an opaque mode functioning as a high-contrast, high-resolution rear projection screen.

Switchable Projection Screen on Demand

Switch in under 10 ms between crystal-clear transparency to enjoy your interior space and high-performance diffusing screen ready to project video or graphics.

High Contrast & Vivid Chromatic Fidelity

The liquid crystal molecular matrix in its resting opaque state evenly disperses rear projector light, achieving deep blacks and vibrant colors without hot spots.

170° Panoramic Viewing Angle

Enjoy optimal visual clarity from any viewpoint across the conference room or commercial exterior, with zero brightness falloff or color distortion.

Dual Function: Video Display & Privacy

When not projecting audiovisual media, the opaque surface serves as complete confidential privacy partitioning with certified acoustic insulation up to 38 dB.

Zero Mechanical Blinds or Motorized Screens

Eliminate clumsy drop-down frames, noisy motors, and roll-up screens. The existing architectural glazing becomes the digital visual display itself.

Immersive Experiences & Dynamic Storefronts

Ideal for live stage productions, enveloping museum exhibits, dynamic digital signage in retail storefronts, and interactive corporate presentation rooms.

REAR PROJECTION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Optical performance tested with laser and standard high-resolution (4K/8K) projectors, ensuring dynamic contrast, color reproduction, and architectural safety.

Structure and Composition Diagram of PDLC Rear Projection Smart Glass
Wide Angle
< 10 ms

Switching Speed

Instantaneous transition from off to on (< 10 ms) and under 100 ms from on to off, with zero noticeable flicker or latency.

High Efficiency
3 - 5 W/m²

Energy Consumption

Minimal residual consumption in transparent mode (equivalent to a small LED lamp). In unpowered rest mode (opaque projection surface), consumption is 0 W/m².

Ultra High Definition
> 99%

UV Radiation Blockage

Fine grain-free surface optimized for modern laser projectors in Ultra HD 4K and 8K resolutions, ideal for detailed corporate graphics and video.

Electrical Safety
48V - 65V AC

Operating Voltage

Extra-low voltage operation powered by CE-certified ADPI controllers with galvanic isolation, fully compliant for partition glazing in commercial interiors and humid zones.

Premium Clarity
< 2.5%

Optical Haze

Industry-leading low haze values in transparent mode, ensuring a crystal-clear, sharp outward view without angular milky clouding.

Large Format
Up to 1,800 mm

Manufacturing Width

Continuous rolls and laminated glass panels up to 1,800 mm wide by up to 4,000 mm long, ideal for floor-to-ceiling glass screens with zero intermediate seams.

Thermal Resistance
-20°C to +90°C

Operating Temperature Range

Advanced chemical formulation with superior thermal stability, engineered for climate-controlled interiors and protected exterior facade displays.

Extended Lifespan
> 80 Million Cycles

Switching Cycles

Accelerated lifecycle testing exceeds 80 million switching cycles without loss of optical uniformity or degradation of liquid crystal responsiveness.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT REAR PROJECTION

Technical answers for architects, experience designers, scenographers, and audiovisual system integrators.

Any standard lamp or laser projector with standard, short-throw, or ultra-short-throw optics is fully compatible. For spaces with moderate ambient light, we recommend 3,000 to 6,000 ANSI lumens. Rear projection (positioning the projector behind the glass) ensures presenters and spectators never cast shadows across the projected image.
In unpowered opaque mode (OFF), the liquid crystal matrix disperses rear light with outstanding contrast. In indoor environments with artificial lighting, vibrant cinematic performance is achieved. For exterior streetfronts with direct sunlight, we recommend high-output laser projectors (6,000+ ANSI lumens) or scheduling dynamic projection for dusk and evening hours for maximum visual impact.
Yes. We offer both Laminated Rear Projection Smart Glass for new builds and Self-Adhesive Smart Film, which retrofits directly onto pre-installed partitions and storefront windows without civil works or frame modifications.
Absolutely. Using professional AV control systems (Crestron, Q-SYS, Extron) or lighting protocols like DMX and building automation, automatic cues can be programmed: the glass turns opaque exactly as the video begins and reverts to transparent at the conclusion, creating dramatic "reveal and disappear" visual illusions.
ADPI liquid crystal technology possesses no grain matrix texture, supporting Full HD, 4K, and 8K content. Viewing angles exceed 170° with homogeneous light distribution across the entire surface, preventing chromatic aberrations or fading hot spots.
