Switchable Front Projection Glass
Switchable Front Projection Glass provides a specialist display solution for projects where there is limited space behind the screen. The glass switches from transparent to frosted on demand, allowing projected content to be viewed from the same side as the projector.
Unlike rear projection film, front projection switchable glass is manufactured as a finished rigid screen using a specialist optical layer. This makes it suitable for architectural spaces, museums, offices, events, churches and retail environments where projection is required without compromising the clean look of the glass.

FROSTED TO CLEAR IN SECONDS
The glass can be installed like standard glass in a frame or suspended from the ceiling on cables whereas the peel and stick film option can be retrofitted to existing glazing using a sign fitting squeegee. When turned off, the film is frosted while applying power polarizes the light crystal layer transforming the film to transparent.
The product can be switched using an RF remote control, standard wall switch or a home automation system can be used for control via a Mobile Phone or Tablet app.
SMART GLASS PROJECTION
Smart Glass Projection Screens have a minimalist look that integrates well with both contemporary and traditional interiors and has been specified for a wide range of applications including retail store windows, live events, exhibitions, museums, art galleries, offices and churches to name a few.
Our Switchable technology is also incredibly popular for use in Churches and other religious buildings, as they can be used to display content for the service when necessary then switched to transparent when not in use in order to not detract from the Church’s architecture.
Switchable Smart Glass Touch Screens
Our Switchable Smart Glass is also available as a touch screen using infrared touch frame technology to create a full interactive solution. Standard screen sizes are available in screen sizes from 65” to 134” with custom sizes available on request up to 4m x 1.8m.
Switchable Smart Film
Our Switchable Smart Film is the perfect choice for applications where the glass is already in situ. Simply install the film to glass using the self-adhesive layer and project images and video from behind the glass using a projector. Standard screen sizes are available from 42” to 120” with custom sizes available on request up to 4m x 1.8m. Custom front projection options are also available.
Smart Film provides a versatile glass screen projection display for more functional environments that require a projection display but also wish to maintain the option for transparency. Our Switchable Rear Projection Screens are most commonly used in shop windows, creating an engaging display to appeal to passing traffic and introduce them to your brand.
SWITCHABLE PROJECTION IN RETAIL
This technology has been cleverly used before with luxury jeweller, Anil Arjandas, using our switchable film on their store front allowing passers by to see the jewellery on offer during opening hours, but once closed the film was switched to frosted to create a HD/4K projection advertising display that also added a layer of security and theft deterrent to the store itself.
Smart Film is also a brilliant way to build momentum for product launches, a brilliant example of this being our project with Rolls Royce, where switchable film was applied to the prestigious windows of Harrods. The Switchable Film was connected to a timer, working alongside a projected countdown on the film that caused audiences to gather outside to see what would be revealed when the timer ran out. When the countdown ended the film would switch from frosted to clear, with the projection stopping to reveal Rolls Royce’s newest model in all its glory.
Switchable Front Projection Glass is a smart glass projection screen designed for front projection applications. It switches from clear to frosted on demand, allowing projected content to be viewed from the same side as the projector.
Front projection is ideal when there is limited or no space behind the screen for a projector. It is often used in museums, offices, events, retail environments, churches and architectural spaces where rear projection is not practical.
No. Front projection switchable screens are supplied as a finished rigid screen, usually using glass or acrylic. This is because front projection requires a specialist optical projection surface to achieve the correct image quality.
Yes. The glass can switch from transparent to frosted on demand. In clear mode, it maintains visibility through the screen, while in frosted mode, it becomes suitable for displaying projected content.
Switchable Front Projection Glass is commonly used for presentations, digital signage, museum displays, event screens, retail installations, corporate spaces and locations where a projection screen is needed without space behind the glass.
