Kent, Ohio's Alphamicron received an Air Force Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Technology Transfer award to develop auto tinting cockpit visors. The resulting technology, called e-Tint is a liquid crystal film that has been adapted to a polycarbonate ballistic lens. With military operators and police in mind, Alphamicron integrated electronics into a frame that allows the lens to tint via manual push of a button or automatically. The eyewear is currently available commercially.
Alphamicron attended the Tech Warrior OPS event in April 2018 to demonstrate and test the eyewear with military special operators and Ohio first responders.
