SECURITY PROVIDING WINDOWS
A switchable windows and a threat sensing or detection system used together to protect against, minimize or mitigate a threat. The threat sensing or detection system provides a signal that may be used to automatically switch a switchable window to the more scattering or privacy condition when a threat is detected. The switchable window may also be a bullet resistant window. Obstructing the ability to view people on the privacy or what is often referred to in the ballistics industry as the witness side of the switchable windows provides a dramatic level of security, safety and protection from a threat like an active shooter or thieves on the threat side of the windows.
