About RESEARCH FRONTIERS INC

https://www.smartglass.com/

Marketed as SPD-SmartGlass, this technology enables glass and plastic surfaces to instantly and precisely switch from clear to a user-controlled level of tint. The system operates via a film containing microscopic particles that align when an electrical voltage is applied, regulating the passage of light. Key features include rapid transition speed, variable tint control, and the ability to block over 99% of UV radiation and significant heat, enhancing energy efficiency. The company licenses its technology to a global network of partners for use in products across the automotive, aviation, marine, rail, and architectural industries.

Regulatory Filings Classification · 95% confidence The document is a Form 8-K Current Report filed with the SEC, dated October 23, 2013. It contains a Regulation FD Disclosure about a new product innovation involving SPD-SmartGlass technology used in aircraft and automotive industries. The document includes a press release as an exhibit and discusses forward-looking statements. There are no financial statements or detailed financial data presented, nor is this an earnings release or annual/interim report. The content is primarily a regulatory disclosure about a business development and product update. Given the nature of the filing (Form 8-K) and the content focusing on a business update and press release, the most appropriate classification is Regulatory Filings (RNS), which is the fallback category for miscellaneous regulatory announcements that do not fit other specific categories.
