Photos: Live large in this smart home

Curtains are so 2005. With Liquid Crystal Glass window technology, future home residents can ensure instant privacy with the touch of a button. When this window's control is in the "on" position, particles in the window become active, allowing light to pass through the glass, thus creating a clear view to the outside. In the "off" position, the glass becomes opaque, blocking visual access from either side of the glass.
