Experience Spectacular Laminated Glass Designs with evguard® - PriWatt® Glass at Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

**Star Trek: Strange New Worlds** is an American television series developed by Akiva Goldsman, Alex Kurtzman, and Jenny Lumet for Paramount+, marking the 11th installment in the Star Trek franchise. Launched in 2022, it is part of Kurtzman’s expanded Star Trek Universe.

**Star Trek PriWatt Smart Glass in Doctor M’Benga’s Office**

Design efforts commenced in August 2020, with filming taking place at CBS Stages Canada. The PriWatt® glass was incorporated into the office of the USS Enterprise’s Chief Medical Officer, Doctor M’Benga, who is discreetly working to find a cure for his daughter’s rare illness. The decision to utilize switchable privacy glass was made to embody a futuristic medical office aboard the USS Enterprise.

The PriWatt® switchable smart glass represents a significant innovation in the healthcare sector, enhancing patient comfort, streamlining operations, and enabling healthcare professionals to concentrate on essential care. In the realm of television and film, innovation is crucial. 

The introduction of PriWatt switchable glass and self-adhesive switchable smart film signifies a transformative advancement for studios and filmmakers. Smart Glass Tech's installation team has achieved one of their most impressive projects to date.

PriWatt switchable products provide unmatched versatility. 

Picture the capability to convert a glass surface into a large display with a simple switch. PriWatt switchable glass serves as an ideal canvas for vibrant visuals, and the self-adhesive switchable smart film introduces an additional layer of creativity, allowing for instant color changes to create unique atmospheres. Whether for a television series, studio production, or major film project, PriWatt switchable products present endless possibilities.

Transition from transparency to privacy, craft immersive environments, or set the mood with a splash of color. PriWatt switchable glass and film epitomize the fusion of innovation and creativity.

For delicate inlays such as LC films, meshes, LEDs, and various other materials utilized in glass laminates, it is essential to employ a lamination film that can seamlessly flow into gaps without compromising or damaging the inlays, ensuring optimal outcomes.

The custom-designed melt viscosity of evguard® laminating film facilitates the lamination of high-value materials. This film effectively fills voids without causing harm to sensitive inlays, including LC films, LEDs, meshes, solar cells, perforated steel, metals, papers, and other substrates.

Sensitive inserts and inlays typically should not be subjected to elevated lamination temperatures. However, thanks to the extensive processing capabilities of evguard®, it is feasible to laminate these delicate components. This versatility facilitates the incorporation of various materials, including LC films, LEDs, meshes, wood, stone, and more.

evguard® laminating film is less sensitive to moisture compared to other interlayer films like ionomers or PVB. This offers a great advantage in resistance of the laminate against weathering conditions and durability of the final product and in this case is very important to protect a liquid crystal film inside the laminate.

**evguard® Laminating Film: Artificial UV Aging (3,000 Hours)**

It is crucial for processors to comprehend the behavior of Laminated Safety Glass (LSG) when exposed to prolonged ultraviolet (UV) radiation, as this exposure can significantly impact the final optical characteristics, including color and haze. Protecting the liquid crystal film laminate from discoloration is of utmost importance.

According to the standards set by DIN EN ISO 12543-4, artificial aging through UV irradiation was conducted using a xenon-arc solar simulation spectrum with a total UV wavelength power of 50 W/m². The samples were subjected to continuous irradiation for 3,000 hours. Control measurements of haze values and light transmission were taken every 500 hours throughout the process.

Both LSG manufactured with evguard® laminating film and LSG made with evguard® laminating film combined with the MPE interlayer successfully passed the testing. No visual degradation in the quality of the laminate was observed.
