Abstract
Methods and systems for determining tint of at least one tintable window when the outside temperature is greater than a first threshold and/or less than a second threshold value.
Claims (4)
1 . A method of determining a tint state of at least one tintable window, the method comprising:
(a) determining a baseline tint state for the at least one tintable window;
(b) determining, based at least in part on an outside temperature and a determination that penetration depth of direct sunlight is below a predetermined threshold, a modified tint state that is darker than the baseline tint state; and
(c) providing instructions to transition the at least one tintable window to the modified tint state.
