Global Smart Glass Market, By Technology (Electrochromic, Thermochromic, Photochromic, Liquid Crystal, Suspended Particle Device), By End-User (Architectural, Consumer Electronics, Transportation, Solar Power Generation), and opportunities and forecast 2020-2027
Smart Glass Market Overview
The global Smart Glass market is projected to grow at a significant rate in the forthcoming years due to the increasing demand and frequent technological progressions. Smart glass has enormous applications in several sectors such as consumer electronics, solar power generation, and transportation.
Green buildings are becoming cornerstones of construction activities across the world. Green buildings are becoming more attractive for their numerous economic benefits. The smart glass market plays a crucial role in these economic benefits, by reducing cooling, heating, and lighting costs. In addition, the smart glass market offerings also block close to 100% UV light and protect residents from harmful exposure to UV radiation. Further, governments around the world are taking initiatives to promote green development. All these prime factors are remarkably boosting the growth of the global Smart Glass market.
Manufacturers in the smart glass market are mainly focusing on technologies related to COVID-19 prevention. For instance, a Chinese startup Rokid has developed COVID-19 detection glasses that have inbuilt thermal imaging technology. The T1 thermal glasses use an infrared sensor to identify temperatures of over 200 people within 2-3 minutes as far as 3 meters. Additionally, the glasses also offer features like a 12-megapixel camera and hands-free voice controls to record live photos and videos. Such innovations are anticipated to enlarge the growth of the Smart Glass market in the forecast period.
On the other hand, the high costs related to the technology are expected to pose a challenge to the growth of the global Smart Glass market over the forecast period. Apart from this, huge investments by key manufactures and the use of smart glasses by social media giants to develop new technologies are also projected to boost the growth of the Smart Glass market in the coming years.
Covid-19 Impact on Smart Glass Market
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic conditions have severely affected every sector around the world. Whereas, the chemicals and materials sectors were moderately affected during the pandemic. This is primarily due to the uncut demand for chemicals for healthcare, life science, and cleaning agents. However, other elements of chemical and material sectors such as paints, industrial oil, construction materials are facing diminution in demand. Strict lockdown resulted in a nearly 50-60% reduction in supply for raw materials, which directly affected the manufacturing process. Further, halt on many end-use industries directly affected the chemical demand all around the world
Smart Glass Market Segment Overview
Based on Technology, the Electrochromic segment occupied the largest share of the Smart Glass market during the forecast period. Electrochromic technology has long been used in rearview mirrors across the automotive sector. With the recent advancements, it has also found applications in switchable windows, sunroofs, and so on. Moreover, by the End-User, Transportation is the largest segment in the market. The smart glass market offerings are more popular in premium cars. The auto thermal cooling and heating according to external weather changes is very important and raises fuel efficiency with less pressure of fuel management on car engines. Therefore, smart glass installations on sunroofs, side, and rear windows, sun visors are in large demand in the global smart glass market.

Smart Glass Market Regional Overview
Region-wise, North America accounts for a major share in the global Smart Glass market and it is predicted to maintain its supremacy during the forecast period. This is because of the increasing focus on renewable and green energy. As well, rising renewable energy sources like solar energy are anticipated to boost the growth of the global smart glass market in the forthcoming years. Likewise, Asia Pacific regional market is witnessing substantial growth in the global smart glass market. Main factors such as the growing expansion of infrastructure, rising disposable income in Asian countries are expected to propel the growth of the market. Additionally, increasing demand for smart technologies, solar energy, renewable sources, and growing automobile sales are further projected to boost demand in the region in the near future.
