Abstract: Different window assemblies can be fabricated and installed where the size of an electrical component is sized for a particular geometry of the window assembly. In a particular embodiment, an energy rating, which may include an energy consumption rate, a recharge rate, a recharge capacity, an electrical current leakage rate, another suitable parameter, or any combination thereof, may be used when determining the size of the electrical component to be used. If needed or desired, one or more trim panels can be used to cover portions of a window assembly to make the window more aesthetically pleasing.

Abstract: A system for reusing power from a smart glass is provided. The system includes a power storage device. The system also includes a synchronous converter configured to change a voltage of electrical power. The system further includes a smart glass in electrical communication with the power storage device, the synchronous converter, and a controller. The smart glass is configured to change or maintain a tint in response to a voltage. In addition, the system includes the controller. The controller is configured to receive an indication that the smart glass is to change a tint. The smart glass has a non-zero voltage between two electrical connections. The controller is configured to change, using the synchronous converter, the voltage from the smart glass to a different voltage. The controller is configured to apply the changed voltage to the power storage device to transfer electrical energy for storage and smart glass tinting.

Abstract: An apparatus can include an electrochromic device configured to be maintained a continuously graded transmission state. When using the apparatus, the electrochromic device can be switched from a first transmission state to a continuously graded transmission state and maintained in the continuously graded transmission state. The current during switching can be higher than current during maintaining the continuously graded transmission state. In an embodiment, the grading can be reversed to provide a mirror image of the grading. In another embodiment, at least 27% and up to 100% of the electrochromic device can be in a continuously graded transmission state. The control device can be located within an insulating glass unit, adjacent to the insulating glass unit, or remotely from the insulating glass unit. In a further embodiment, a gap between bus bars can be used to form a portion of the electrochromic device that can be continuously graded.

Abstract: An apparatus can include an electrochromic device. When using the apparatus, the electrochromic device can be switched from a first transmission state to a continuously graded state and maintained at continuously graded transmission state. An apparatus can include an active stack with a first transparent conductive layer, a second transparent conductive layer, an anodic electrochemical layer between the first and the second transparent conductive layers, and a cathodic electrochemical layer between the first and the second transparent conductive layers. The apparatus can further include a first bus bar electrically coupled to the first transparent conductive layer, a second bus bar electrically coupled to the second transparent conductive layer, where the second bus bar is generally non-parallel to the first bus bar, and a third bus bar electrically coupled to the first transparent conductive layer, where the third bus bar is generally parallel to the first bus bar.

Abstract: An apparatus can include a control device configured to select a scene from a collection of scenes for a window including electrochromic devices in response to receiving an input corresponding to state information. In another aspect, a method of operating an apparatus can include receiving an input corresponding to state information; and at a control device, in response to receiving the input, selecting a scene from a collection of scenes. The collection of scenes may be validated before using the scenes. The scenes may be validated based on physical configuration of the controlled space, preferences of the occupant, or the like. Still further, scenes can be changed to allow for the passage of time or an illusion of changing sky conditions when sky conditions are not changing. The apparatus and method can be simpler to understand and implement as compared to complex control strategies.

Abstract: A method can be used to control the operation of one or more non-light-emitting, variable transmission devices. In an embodiment, a method of operating a plurality of non-light-emitting, variable transmission devices can include receiving requests for requested visible transmittance for the non-light-emitting, variable transmission devices; determining operating parameters for the non-light-emitting, variable transmission devices; and operating the non-light-emitting, variable transmission devices at the operating parameters, wherein the operating parameters for the non-light-emitting, variable transmission devices are different. In another aspect, the method can include operating the non-light-emitting, variable transmission device at a first operating parameter for a time period, wherein the operating parameter corresponds to an intermediate visible transmittance; generating a characterization parameter based at least part on the voltage and current measurements that are obtained during the time period; and controlling the non-light-emitting, variable transmission device period based at least in part on the characterization parameter.
