Patent number: 10061138Abstract: A system for selectively controlling visibility of information in a work environment is provided. The system includes one or more polarized emissive screens located within the work environment. The screens have a first direction of polarization. Information displayed on the screens is visible from inside the work environment. The work environment includes at least one window which permits viewing of the polarized emissive screens from outside of the work environment. A polarizing filter having a second direction of polarization arranged at an angle to the first direction of polarization is positioned proximate to the window. From outside the work environment, the inside of the environment can be seen through the window, but with an altered view of the information on the displays.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2017Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: STEELCASE INC.Inventors: Matthew Mead, Paul Noll, Lisa Mead, Remi Marcel Louis Casal, Joel Stanfield
