Nov 17, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/272543

Inventors:

Thomas Hicks - Portland OR, US
Michael John Kyne - Lake Forest CA, US

Assignee:

Artscape, Inc. - Portland OR

International Classification:

B32B 3/14
G02B 5/04

US Classification:

428141, 428156, 428161, 359599, 359615, 4271631

Abstract:

A textured window film has a prismatic effect that allows a substantial amount of incoming light to pass through a window while refracting the light at random or semi-random angles in a manner that distorts viewed images. The result is a window film that is brighter and more vibrant while also providing visual privacy. The textured window film can therefore better simulate real textured and colored glass.
