Abstract: The present invention relates to an advantageously interactive item of furniture and/or appliance comprising: at least one worktop formed from at least one substrate made of a monolithic glazing material and of area larger than 0.7 m2, said substrate having a lightness L* higher than 10, a light transmission TL lower than 50%, an opacity indicator higher than 90, and if needs be a haze higher than 15%; at least one heating element; at least one light source, in particular intended to light up one or more zones or one or more elements or displays of the substrate, in particular by projection, this source for example being located plumb with the substrate; and at least one interface for communicating with at least one element of the worktop such as the one or more light sources and/or the one or more heating elements and/or if needs be wirelessly with at least one external element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an advantageously interactive item of furniture and/or appliance comprising: at least one worktop formed from at least one substrate made of a monolithic glazing material and of area larger than 0.7 m2, said substrate having a lightness L* lower than 10, a haze lower than 30% and a light transmission TL lower than 10%; at least one heating element; at least one light source, in particular intended to light up one or more zones or one or more elements or displays of the substrate, this source in particular being located under the substrate and being hidden thereby when said source is at rest; and at least one interface for communicating with at least one element of the worktop such as the one or more light sources and/or the one or more heating elements and/or if needs be wirelessly with at least one external element.

Abstract: An item of furniture or appliance includes at least one worktop formed from at least one substrate made of a transparent monolithic glazing material and of area larger than 0.7 m2, equipped with a coating so that the substrate equipped with the coating has a haze higher than 15%, a light transmission TL lower than 60% and an opacity indicator higher than 85. The item of furniture or appliance also includes at least one heating element, at least one light source to light up one or more zones or one or more elements or displays of the substrate, the source being located plumb with the substrate in order to form a display by projection, or under the substrate in order to form a display by transmission through the substrate, and at least one interface for communicating with at least one element of the worktop.

Abstract: This invention concerns glass sheets made from a glass containing, in percentages by weight, from 0.85 to 2% of total iron expressed in the form Fe2O3, the content by weight of FeO being from 0.21 to 0.40%, said sheets having, for a thickness of from 2 to 3 mm, a factor (TLA) of at least 70%, a factor (TE) less than 50% and a factor (TUV) less than 25%. The sheets according to the invention are more especially intended for the production of lateral panes for automobile vehicles.

Abstract: Glass compositions containing, expressed in percentages by weight, from 0.75 to 1.4% total iron expressed in the form Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3, from 0.25 to 0.32% ferrous iron in the form of FeO and which has, and at a thickness of between approximately 3 and 3.3 millimeters, exibit a total light transmission factor under illuminent A (TL.sub.A) of at least 70%, a total energy transmission factor (T.sub.E) less than approximately 46% and a transmission factor for ultraviolet radiation (T.sub.UV) less than approximately 25%, and are suitable for the production of windows or panes for use in the architectural field or in automobile and industrial vehicles.
