microlouvered
Microlouvered refers to a technology or design approach that uses an array of tiny louvers to control light, glare, and visibility through a surface such as glazing or a partition. The microlouvers are typically a fraction of a millimeter to a few millimeters in width, densely packed, and can tilt to varying angles. When oriented toward the light source, the slats reduce glare and solar heat gain while preserving the ability to see through the panel at ordinary viewing heights. At low tilt angles they allow daylight and outward visibility; at higher tilt they enhance privacy and shading.
The term is commonly applied to architectural glazing systems, where microlouvered glass or films are integrated
Materials used for microlouvers include metals, polymers, or laminated glass with micro-slats integrated during manufacturing. Adjustable
