Dear Mailbase
I wondered what fellow LPA's take on the use of Vistamatic blinds were please?
These are sandblasted frosted glass panels that seem to be very popular for use in theatres and other locations.
I have made some rudimentary transmission checks on samples and they seem to have ~80% transmission in 280 to 800nm range that we are able to test. I do not think that this takes any account of any diffusion of the source that the sandblasting may have though.
Do LPA's use these in their locations? And if so, are other control measures put in place?
Many thanks for your responses in advance,
regards
