Toward an era of smart windows !
LC MAGIC, a light control film creating a new space with the magic of light.

Create a new space with the magic of light.
The liquid crystal light control ﬁlm achieves "to show", "not to show" and "serve as a projection screen".
LC MAGIC is an ultra-thin liquid crystal ﬁlm developed based on Toppan's liquid crystal technological achievements accumulated
through our display-related businesses.
The ﬂip of a switch can transform the ﬁlm state from transparent to opaque, or vise versa.
This innovative product is used in a wide variety of applications, as an alternative to a blind or curtain, or as a digital signage screen.
Our lineup is: Normal-Mode ﬁlm that switches to transparent when power is turned on, and Reverse-Mode ﬁlm that switches totransparent when power is turned oﬀ.

The liquid crystals are aligned diﬀerently, whichscatters light, making the state of the ﬁlm opaque.

The liquid crystals are aligned in a uniform
direction, which allows light to pass through,making the state of the ﬁlm transparent.

Features of LC MAGIC

1

4As LC MAGIC is optically developed, the opaque state candisplay images with high quality and high deﬁnition,such as 4K.

Realized 86% total light transmittance and 98% haze.
For Normal-Mode ﬁlm, the degree of transparency can beadjusted.

Note: In addition to the conventional rear projection, front projection isavailable.

Note: Feasible with Normal-Mode ﬁlm.

By making a proper electric design prior to modularization,
LC MAGIC can be freely processed into your ideal shape.
Note: Signiﬁcant modiﬁcations cannot be made after modularization.

Privacy Protection

Adjustable Transparency

Large Width of 1.5m

The high haze of 98% at
opaque state provides a highlevel of privacy.

The degree of transparency
can be easily adjusted
using a controller.

The ﬁlm can be applied to a large
window or partition without
replenishing.

Note: The optical characteristic of
the middle tone is not guaranteed.

Higher Transparency

The transparent state is available
without electricity, suitable for using
mainly at clear state.

The ﬁlm remains transparent in caseof power failure, ensuring visibility.

LC MAGIC is used in various ﬁelds (oﬃces, houses, commercial facilities, etc.).
LC MAGIC can be used diﬀerently depending on the intended situation or time, mainly for security solutions,privacy protection, or projecting images.

Images are for illustrative purpose only.

For VIP or reception rooms

For hotel bathrooms

Depending on the contents of the meeting, you can easily change the state
between transparent and opaque.

Can create a privacy environment with a sense of openness.

For factory tour routes

For outer windows

Depending on the nature of the manufacturing, you can use the ﬁlm tokeep conﬁdentiality from visitors as a security measure.

You can select the state of ﬁlm depending on the weather.

For medical facilities

As a digital signage screen

Unlike curtains and blinds, LC MAGIC prevents the accumulation of dust
and can be easily cleaned, keeping the room sanitary.
