What is Digital Curtain™?
Tiny suspended particles are scattered randomly within a film, sandwiched between two glass sheets.
When voltage is applied, an electrical current forces the particles to align in a straight line, which allows light to pass through, turning the glass from frosted to transparent.
Features and benefits
01
Freedom to control natural light
When the roof is transparent, you get a feeling of openness to the sky. When it is deactivated, you get privacy. Enjoy natural light or privacy whatever the weather.
02
Your car behaves as sunglasses or as a curtain
Your car behaves as a Light Control Shield.
The instantaneous switch from dark to clear & vice versa turns your car glazing into an active control unit, reducing the harsh glare of sunlight.
03
Your tailored Digital Curtain
Different sections of the glass can be independently dimmed with customized shapes or design. This offers you an automated, dynamic digital curtain feature.
04
Your car offers ultimate privacy on demand
When used on rear windows, it helps keep passengers and belongings invisible from outside view, instantaneously, at the touch of a button.
05
UV cut for health
Because this technology uses laminated glass, Digital Curtain™ cuts UV rays, protecting your skin from harmful sun radiation and your car interior from sunburn deterioration.
06
Sustainability: extend your mileage
When your Digital Curtain roof is treated with special thermal comfort coatings, it reduces the need for air conditioning in summer and for heating in winter, while additional headroom is gained by removing the sunshade.

Technical information
01
Different technologies
When Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystals (PDLC) is used, the glass, Wonderlite™ DX, turns to opaque (milky or frosted) when switched off.
When SPD is used, the glass, Wonderlite™, turns to dark tint when switched off.
The contrast ratio depends on the technology used and your product customization.
02
Plug & Play module
Different effects, colors, contrast ratios, switching patterns, and dynamics are possible. Just come to us to share your ideas.
We can customize & deliver a fully integrated system for the Digital Curtain, including the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and dedicated software design.
03
Thermal comfort to save mileage
When used for roof applications, the glass can be treated with special metallic coatings.
In summer, thanks to Iris™ / SuperIris coating, occupants can be protected from sun heat by reflecting infrared radiation.
In winter, thanks to the low-e coating, the cabin heat can be retained, preserving thermal comfort by reducing the cold sensation near the glass surface.
As a result: reduced HVAC use and extended mileage.
04
Save room and weight
The Iris™ coating applied on roof enables the removal of the sunshade structure.
It can free up additional headroom for vehicle occupants (up to 30 mm) and offers weight savings up to 5 kg.
05
UV-cut Glass
The Digital Curtain™ film is embedded into a PVB laminated glass. That PVB interlayer cuts approximately 99% of UV rays.
As a result, it protects not only passengers from sunburn, it also protects car interiors from the damaging sun radiation spectrum.
