The energy efficient RavenWindow changes tint level according to temperature

Now here’s something we’ve never really seen or thought of before, temperature adapting windows. The RavenWindow is an answer to energy efficiency in the United States where buildings consume approximately 39% of the country’s energy and 68% of its electricity. This innovative and intelligent window changes automatically according to the temperature, deciding how much sunlight to let in. Using windows like these could up the efficiency scales of buildings to 40%. On hot sunny days, this chameleon window changes color, turning into a darker tint and turning into completely transparent windows on cooler days.

Wiring, electricity and a bunch of mumble-jumble technology isn’t required to control this window. The RavenWindow could help reduce the bills we pay for heating and cooling systems used today. For these transitions, thermo-reflective filters along with a bit of nanotechnology are used, making it cost effective, easy-to-install and low on maintenance. A greener way to let in sunlight, the RavenWindow is sure to grab attention of builders around.
