Transparent armor is used in a large variety of military and police armored vehicles to provide superior situational awareness while preserving the security of vehicle occupants.

Particularly in military settings it offers dramatically improved situational awareness while maximizing the space within the driver’s compartment. The ability to effectively display night vision adds to the system’s capabilities.

The new technology replaces the conventional PC No-spall (shrapnel) plastic layer in transparent armor. The no-spall layer is typically attached to the ‘safe side’ of the glass, but it is subject to delamination, requires careful maintenance and reducing the lifecycle of the transparent armor.
