View Announces Second Terminal at DFW to Feature View Smart Glass and Environmental Sensors
June 14 2022 - 7:00AM
View, Inc. (NASDAQ: VIEW) (“View”), a leader in smart building
technologies, announced that its smart glass has been installed at
Dallas Fort Worth International Airport’s new “High C” gates. DFW’s
decision to incorporate View Smart Glass at the High C gates comes
on the heels of a four-gate expansion at Terminal D, which opened
last May. View Smart Glass is a key component of DFW’s strategy to
transform travel and elevate the passenger experience.
Opened ahead of schedule on June 1, the project will add five
newly renovated gates to Terminal C to meet future growth demands
and delight passengers with amenities that benefit their health and
well-being. View Smart Glass also plays an integral role in DFW’s
plans to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2030. View Smart
Glass uses artificial intelligence to automatically adjust in
response to the sun, maximizing access to natural light and outdoor
views while blocking heat and glare and reducing energy consumption
from lighting and HVAC.
“At DFW, we have the ambitious goal of creating a sustainable
airport ecosystem,” said Robert Horton, Vice President of
Environmental Affairs at DFW Airport. “View’s smart building
technologies are an integral part of our decarbonization and energy
resilience strategy.”
DFW’s High C gates were the first aviation project ever to use a
modular construction process by which engineers transported six
fully prefabricated modules, including View Smart Glass and
weighing up to 550 tons, a quarter-mile across the airfield and
placed them within a half an inch of design specification.
“With the Terminal C expansion, we saw an opportunity to
fundamentally reimagine the way we design and build airports,” said
Khaled Naja, Executive Vice President of Infrastructure and
Development at DFW Airport. “View’s mission and products directly
align with our vision to transform travel in ways that benefit
people and the planet, while boosting our bottom line.”
A study on daylight and views at DFW found that seats at gates
with View Smart Glass were 15 degrees cooler than those with
traditional windows, enabling passengers to spend more time and
money at restaurants, bars, and shops within the airport. In a
similar study on natural light and the airport experience,
passengers who boarded at gates with smart glass were 68% more
likely to report a higher satisfaction rate and rated the airport
as 33% more modern, efficient, bright, and comfortable.
DFW’s High C gates also include View Sense environmental
sensors, which continuously measure air quality, thermal comfort,
lighting, and acoustics, all of which directly impact passenger
health. DFW will be able to leverage AI-powered insights from
sensor data to ensure a healthy and comfortable environment.
“View is on a mission to transform buildings to improve human
health, address climate change, and create value for our
customers,” said Kyle Smith, Vice President with View. “Airports
across the country are recognizing the incredible value View’s
smart building technology provides, and we are thrilled to deepen
our partnership with DFW to define and deliver the airport of the
future.”
DFW is part of a growing list of airports across the country
with View Smart Glass, including Boston Logan International Airport
(BOS), San Francisco International Airport (SFO), New York
LaGuardia Airport (LGA), Charlotte Douglas International Airport
(CLT), O’Hare International Airport (ORD), Phoenix Sky-Harbor
International Airport (PHX), Seattle-Tacoma International Airport
(SEA), Memphis International Airport (MEM), Bozeman Yellowstone
International Airport (BZN), and the recently announced
installation at Missoula Montana Airport (MSO).
