Abstract:
An electro-optical glazing structure having reflection and transmission modes of operation for selectively reflecting and transmitting electromagnetic radiation, respectively, the electro-optical glazing structure comprising:an electro-optical panel, having first and second optical states of operation;optical state switching means for switching the electro-optical panel to the first optical state of operation in order to induce electro-optical glazing structure into the reflection mode of operation, and for switching the electro-optical panel to the second optical state of operation in order to induce the electro-optical glazing structure into the transmission mode of operation, andmeans for further controlling electromagnetic radiation incident on the electro-optical panel.
