Octoglass chemists and engineers ran hundreds of experiments, used dozens of instruments, and spent several months building a model of electrochromic devices. With that model in place, we can simulate different states inside an electrochromic device and analyze the processes that occur there with the accuracy afforded by the mathematical tools we apply. As a result of this work, we developed controllers that enable fast and safe control of our glass with electrochromic electronic tinting. The KDS-2, KDS-2 Mini, and KDS-2 nano controllers were designed so they can be installed in hard-to-reach locations.
