Crown Launches its "Smart Skylight" Allowing Homeowners to Control Natural Light Entering the Room

Patented thin-film technology allows homeowners to easily transition their skylights between clear and black in seconds

CORVALLIS, Ore., Nov. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (OTCQB: CRKN) ("Crown" or the "Company"), a leading smart glass technology company with a patented thin-film solution, today announced the launch of its insert for your home skylight, which allows you to control the amount of light entering the room. Crown's patented DynamicTintTM Insert does not require you to replace your skylight, for it conveniently snaps into the existing frame without the need for fasteners or any tools. Best of all, the insert's cost starts at $395 and can be easily installed in a matter of minutes.

Usually high in your ceiling and out of reach, the vast majority of existing skylights cannot prevent unwanted glare, light, or heat. Crown's DynamicTintTM skylight insert allows you to easily and quickly adjust the level of desired tint, thereby controlling the amount of light and subsequently heat entering the room. Crown's affordable insert leaves you more comfortable and content in your home.

"While most of the time we enjoy the sunlight flowing through our skylights, it can also be a nuisance, and you may want to reduce the glare and excessive heat caused by unfiltered light. Crown's DynamicTintTM Insert not only gives you the ability to control a room's light, but it's also a way to make your home more sustainable" said Crown Chairman & CEO, Doug Croxall.

As climate change plays a critical role in the world today, many homeowners are looking for solutions that not only make their houses more livable but also less reliant on carbon emissions.

"The amount of the sun's energy transmitted through a typical skylight can contribute significantly to your cooling costs. I am excited about the DynamicTintTM Insert and look forward to being able to easily control the sunlight entering a room at any time of the day," said Steve Easley, notable building science consultant and the creator of The Forever House, a paradigm for energy efficiency.
