Not sure but I think you can get the film on Amazon so you can make any window do it. this is revolutionary, I would have it on my car.
Here’s a solar skylight that lets in natural light while also generating electricity https://www.onyxsolar.com/product-services/photovoltaic-glass-solutions/pv-skylight
Solar roof tiles are another excellent idea for generating free electricity through your building
Sounds too good to be true, but could completely revolutionize the energy industry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYyvj2SNthE
A breakthrough in transparent solar panel technology could mean the ability to harvest solar energy from any glass surface!
These transparent chips are a great way to impress your guests or kids during Halloween.
You can make glass chips at home, but the effort involved might not be worth it
Check out this YouTuber who successfully made transparent potato chips. Wonder how easy it is, though, to misplace them https://www.youtube.com/shorts/K5w80eijvYM

From Instructables….
just googled it and there are some great things coming from this idea, very creative
Wow, didn’t realise this was a thing rather than just an idea. Here is another cool video, can’t wait till I see this stuff somewhere.
It’s Smartglass no? The image you used is in this video. Looks amazing stuff.
Found the video, I would book a flight on this for sure.
Airbus claim they are going to make this, one day.
Nothing near me but hey – its still a thing
Not as bassey as you would want, but I have this and it works well, someone make a beefy one though please.
Been done, there are a whole range of them now, great idea.
Great idea but someone has made one and you can invest in it on kickstarter
