Saw this in the local paper about a ‘concept house’ built by Anderson Windows, and thought it was pretty interesting. For myself, I can’t see having most of the features discussed – I think it would creep me out a little to have windows that could be made to picture things other than what they are. A little too much like the beginning of a bad sci-fi movie for me. High-tech Windows

The idea of windows that turn from clear to opaque at the touch of a button appeals to me. But they still haven't come up with what I really want, clean windows at the touch of a button! : )
LOL, I think you should send that idea to Anderson!

Better than that, windows that clean themselves without all the work of pressing a button!
They already exist. One local window company is already advertising vinyl replacement windows with self cleaning glass in their radio commercials.
The glass is manufactured by Pilkington, one of the largest glass manufacturers in the world. http://www.activglass.com/index_eng.htm
