PPG Architectural Glass

ppg.com > Products > Listing

It's been so long since I've looked at this stuff, I can't remember what PPG uses for their low emissivity coatings - whether it's ITO or not. They do specify "metallic oxide coating" for the Solarcool®.

None of these coatings are patterned. Maybe PANL will come up with a large area emitter, but on their Product Concepts page they list

- Color-changing lighting panels and light walls for home and office

so I assume we're talking about pixelated lighting. That will require a lot of development, but the potential market is huge. I've always thought this was an interesting application because it's not just a replacement for other lighting - it's a new thing in itself, an architectural element.
