  • Publication number: 20210231981
    Abstract: This disclose describes systems, methods and non-transitory computer readable media for controlling operations of an EC device with compensation for the hysteresis effect of the leakage current. A control module, coupled to the EC device, may be configured to develop a hysteresis model representing a hysteresis effect of a leakage current of the EC device, track one or more prior operating histories of the EC device, and transition the EC device to a target transmission level with compensation for the hysteresis effect of the leakage current based in part on a current transmission level, the one or more prior operating histories, and the hysteresis model of the EC device.

  • Publication number: 20150301380
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for harvesting light from displays. In one embodiment, the invention relates to a substrate having a first and a second surface, an edge and a luminescent dye. A photovoltaic transducer is positioned adjacent the substrate. Light passing through both the first and second surfaces of the substrate is polarized and light constrained within and traveling through the substrate interacts with the photovoltaic transducer to produce electric current. In one embodiment, the method of harvesting light from an illuminated electronic display including the steps of providing a light source, providing a substrate having a first and a second surface and an edge; and a luminescent dye; and providing a photovoltaic transducer positioned adjacent the substrate. Light passing through both the first and second surfaces of the substrate is polarized, and light constrained within and traveling through the substrate interacts with the photovoltaic transducer to produce electric current.
