Electropolarised.
Not Electrochromic.
Electropolarised Technology
Polarised light molecules reorient instantly when voltage is applied. Achieves full transition in 0.1 seconds — from completely clear to completely private. Precise intermediate states. Broadest tint range available.
Electrochromic Technology
Ion migration through a chemical medium. Takes 30–45 seconds to fully transition. Intermediate states are imprecise. Cannot achieve full opacity. Limited tint range and slower response at lower temperatures.
"GenVue Shade switches in 0.1 seconds. Electrochromic glass takes up to 45 seconds. That's not a small difference. That's a different category."
