These smart helicopter window shades will be showcased by InspecTech at Booth #2035.
InspecTech's electronic window shade system - e-Shades - allows passengers and operators to instantly and precisely regulate light, glare and heat entering the cabin. These dynamic shades improve passenger comfort and satisfaction, increase security, lower in-cabin noise levels, block over 99% of harmful UV light and reduce cabin heat build-up when aircraft are on the ground.
e-Shades are the only switchable window shade technology currently flying in helicopters. They are manufactured using SPD-Smart light-controlling film and a lightweight shatter-proof substrate. They provide instant and unlimited control with the simple push of a button ?from a very dark tint (with more than 99% of incoming light blocked) to completely clear, and to any level of tint in between.
e-Shades are currently on a variety of helicopter models, one such model being the Sikorsky S-92, shown at top.
