A Smarter Approach to Glass
Upgrade your existing glass and make it smarter with DynamicTint™.
Technology
Unlike other smart glass technologies, DynamicTint™ requires very low energy to control the tinting and can be powered by solar. DynamicTintTM uses electrokinetic technology, which allows windows to transition from clear to true black in less than 4 seconds.
The DynamicTint™ Difference
DynamicTint™ was originally developed at Hewlett-Packard (HP) as a solution to control light with electrokinetic ink. The team saw there was a wider application for the technology within the smart glass space.
The most important benefit of DynamicTint™ is that it allows you to retrofit your existing glass compared to other technologies that require complete glass replacement.
Origin
The versatility of DynamicTint™ will allow buildings and homes to reduce their energy consumption and save on heating and cooling costs.

Transition Time
DynamicTint™ can transition from dark to clear in less than 4 seconds.
Buildings account for:
Glass is poor insulator
40%
Of annual greenhouse gases in the US
20%
Of electrical energy consumption for lighting
The Sustainable Technology
DynamicTint™ was developed with sustainability at the forefront in an effort to reduce the amount of carbon emissions in the built environment.
Can be applied to any glass surface, eliminating the need to create new glass.
Ability to Retrofit
Reduce Energy Consumption
When used with windows, it improves the energy efficiency and reduces HVAC usage.
Use Renewable Energy
Requires very low voltage to operate, can be powered by solar or batteries.
Crown’s patented DynamicTint™ technology provides a solution that allows a building to immediately impact climate change.
