AIST - Light-controlling sheet switches between mirror and transparent states

There is another really amazing new technology captured on video by Don Kennedy and Ryo Osuga of DigInfo.TV. I think there are a lot of implications for building eco-friendly buildings and cars and having more flexibility with components in the future. From DigInfo.TV:

AIST has developed a light-controlling sheet that can switch between mirror and transparent states. Using this sheet on window glass saves energy by effectively shutting out sunlight, greatly reducing the load on air-conditioning.

“Until now, switching has been done with glass.
