Product Summary: Windows allow you to see as well as to be seen. However, sometimes, it may be desirable to be shielded from prying eyes. SGG PRIVA-LITE, "intelligent" glass, offers you this privacy at the flick of a switch. PRIVA-LITE’s unique technology allows it to be switched from an ordinary-looking clear glass to a whitish translucent glass, ensuring optimal vision control. All it takes is a simple electrical switch to make the transition from clear to translucent. SGG PRIVA-LITE allows you to see through it one moment and then shields you the next. It’s as easy as turning the lights on! - http://www.sggprivalite.com |
