Surely you still remember the shocking moment in 2019 when the Tesla Cybertruck window shattered on stage. It was a moment many folks will never forget and until now this glass still attracts a lot of questions about the material as well as the durability. To tackle the concerns, Elon gave the Cybertruck an upgrade with a revolutionary glass that is being utilized on Starship. So what exactly is this new material? What breakthroughs has it brought to Cybertruck?
Let’s find out in today’s episode of Tesla Car World!
Welcome back to our channel. Before we begin, please show your support by subscribing, if you haven’t already, and ringing the bell so you won't miss out on any of our interesting videos in the future. Now, let’s get started with today's content!
But the "Armor Glass" failed the Cybertruck again in front of the audience because the glass on the driver’s side cracked instantly and went all the way up to the edges of the window. That means almost everyone can’t stop thinking about that glass.
Thus, after the unfortunate incident happened, Elon Musk assured the audience that Tesla would fix the shortcomings of the Armor Glass in the coming future with new material. He said that transparent metal glass would represent an innovation for Cybertruck.
Transparent metal isn’t a new thing. In fact, it’s been around for quite some time now. And if you’re a Star Trek nerd, you’ll know that transparent aluminum was a thing in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Stuck in the 20th century, Scotty needed to build an aquarium tank that could transport whales in their ship back to the future, but needed a lightweight and strong material to do it. He gave the transparent aluminum formula to a plexiglass company to make it for them. It sounds like a fictional story. Is transparent aluminum real? Yes, that's the answer.

Window glass for side windows is different from the safety glass for windshields. Side windows are tempered so they will shatter into tiny pieces so that during a crash they break into harmless fragments instead of large dangerous shards and so after the crash passengers and rescue workers can get through the windows. Derp.
Yeah on normal car or truck, but cyber truck looks like it has safety glass on all 4 corners.
@@reyfetsalmo3346 Which means that should a Cybertruck for any reason be part of a serious accident where the passengers have to get out, the side windows, just like the front windshield with it safety glass (glass designed of two sheets of glass sandwiching a tough transparent membrane designed to withstand tearing from a lot of force in impacts and to not break away but to actually prevent passengers from being thrown out of the vehicle where they'd be subject to far more serious injury) the side windows would stay in place with large pieces of sharp glass and make rescue all the more difficult. No, safety glass on the side windows are not normally allowed on side windows by law for a reason and a purpose. There may be exceptions for armored cars but I'm pretty sure that by federal statute the side window need to be tempered not laminated safety glass. But who knows what sort of intricacies there might be in regards to these new vehicles. I'd still feel safer in a vehicle I knew I would not be as like to be trapped inside of after an accident. Cheers.
"they break into harmless fragments instead of large dangerous shards"
I am not buying it. The smaller the glass fragment the more dangerous it is. Safety glass actually has a top and bottom layer that ensure that after the different fragments are created they end up "taped together" instead of becoming a fragment grenade.
@@jefflittle8913 Well, OK...but in a typical car crash where velocities are relatively low and at relatively low energy would you rather push your body through a picket fence of long sharp jagged shards some of which might be several inches long, or be sprayed by a shower of lima bean sized and irregularly shaped glass cubes; those are what you have in a typical car crash, which is what we are talking about; not a small fragment of glass propelled by explosives at high speed as in a grenade. As I mentioned in an armored car which is designed to withstand attacks from modern weapons and explosives these requirements would be different and side windows are not expected to break away into relatively harmless cubes of glass and allow egress from the the vehicle. Special conditions require special qualities.
@@jefflittle8913 Really? You've never seen a broken side-window from a car before? The way it's tempered causes it to break into little cubes. Yeah, the edges of those cubes are sharp but because they are cubes instead of shards, it's, comparatively very hard to cut yourself with. If you're ever in a car that has been broken into, you might still find some of these little glass cubes under or in the seat cushions. Windshields are different tho. They have to be because people are ejected through them in accidents more often than the side windows. Yes, windshields are laminated and hold together the way you mentioned. However, the laminating polymer had to be changed shortly after they started using it in windshields because it was decapitating people. I would encourage you to do a little research into the development of modern auto glass. You can find a lot of it here on youtube and it's actually pretty interesting.
From Star Trek to reality, what a world we live in.
It’s a magical time.
Must have had a visit from Scottie!
Hello Computer...
Ironic how the first trolling Niave, Narcissistic and Negativity that feeds the beast, called *impossble* was, the very founding author & script writers of Star Trek. Attempting to make beyond earthly achievements, appear absurd & hilarious.
Yes!And in our life time!!
Great idea however it should be as an option. Most people don’t need bulletproof glass. Keep the cost of the vehicle down.
Save up 😉
You don’t know what you need until you need it.

you think you superman huh
@@cashyyy your a punk, and know nothing about sales and a customer’s point of view… having options and reasonable prices makes everyone happy, and doesn’t leave a piece of the market behind.
I truly wish that this transparent metal glass was available to the masses for an affordable price
I'd install on my home windows for sure.
So that people would not be able to get outside in case of accident or fire? You know lithium batteries...
@@viktorianas the cars have manual door latches for that reason.
It will never happen. That is the point. Typical Musk, talking about a luxury item and average Joes are hyped about it because they think it's for them. It isn't. You can make anything if the cost is not an issue, this is nothing new.
I totally need something at home that is of no real use to me, but is great in space and on a high tech pickup.
Ohh wait, I do have some whales I need to bring back from the past!
"Computer ... c o m p u t e r ???"
"You haven't invented transparent aluminum yet? I should still be able to t a l k to your computer about that."
"We've been talking to computers for at least a hundred years. But my keyboard skills are still sharper than a Chinese abacus."
... ok, the last two were a bit off topic.
Should mention that Alon increases the overall structural integrity in this case of a vehicle by a dramatic amount and a very specific adhesive would be required.
Humanity is on the path to amazing innovations. We just need to make sure we aren’t leaving those who can’t afford this stuff behind.
Get 3 jobs
@@gordonharper9126 not everyone wants to work their life away. Or has the ambition or energy to do so.
@@Mozeart I agree. But those that do work extremely hard wind up being able to live their life in the way they want. No one gets a free ride. If you have your mental health and your physical health and are able-bodied to work and support yourself as if you're an adult then to say it's someone else's responsibility to develop products for someone that wants to be lazy so that they can have the same things that others who have made the proper sacrifices and dedicated themselves to the goal have. No one owes anyone anything because they are willfully ignorant and willfully lazy. You are responsible for your behavior. And the consequences of that behavior. You and you alone. If you don't want to work however hard you would have to to have the things that you want and need and are able to do so then you can go without.
@@gordonharper9126 I dunno how brilliant and ambition you are but I know as I become more successful the more I want to help other. My STEAM ventures and visions will probably lead to lots being able to live like me and haven't done the work and i'm ok with that. I am about to Engineer and create without some shinny reward at the end for me just the act of having the knowledge to make is enough for me. However i'm rare and most people can make toast. However I have empathy for all.
@@Mozeart If you do endeavor to pursue your vision I wish you GOD speed. Everything has it's just reward.... Everything. If you do find the courage to face whatever it is that holds you back you will find a shiny treasure. And the shiny treasure will have a great value, so much so that all those in whom you desire to influence lives will change for the better. However if you sit there like a bump on a log and do nothing. That (nothing good) comes to those in whom you profess a desire to have a better life. It seems to me as if you have a desire to suffer for others. That is no trivial thing. So get at it friend!! With great suffering comes great reward. You will inherit a treasure if you do so. And if the treasure's value is great enough it's heavy enough to cause a Great ripple when thrown into the sea that will circle the world. This is possible!
The treasure is what draws folks to the field.
Yes. Transparency and strong. Winning xxxx
Absolutely would prefer this on the car - no more smash and grab or car jacking. As another mentioned HUGE market for homes too!
So, Elon is using Alon? Good!
The Tesla Keely...always some super cool thing that's going to push out delivery just a LITTLE BIT longer. True to the Keely legacy.
Your missing a key note! It was a 50. caliber black tip armor piercing round🤯 so it’s remarkable how much power 1.6 inches can stop 3:45 is the proof and 4:15
Wow that is amazing
so make standardized panels of alon that are optimized for strength in triangles, squares, and pentagons by mass. or tapered oval domelike scales
Very interesting materials used for cybertruck unique and assured durability
Are there alon eyeglasses?
Of course I would like this high tech materials installed in my vehicles. Optional items available would be fantastic. Keep on developing Alon
Do you need bulletproof car windows? 🤨
@@peterzimmerman1114 Well some children need to go to school in some country
Keep on developing? It was patented in 1980, and has been in use for some 20 years. It's a known material, and the processes for various stages and use-case preparations have been in place for some time. It's a thing, through and through. The only improvements would be in the machinery involved in the production, sourcing the elements for the aluminum oxynitride, etc, which is how just about every other material out there works.
Gangbangers do & they Dec have the money to pay! Others will copy them.
Fantastic!! Everything is possible
from Ellon.
YES
This car is not for earth but for Mars planet i love this multi planet truck
WHEN ARE THEY COMING OUT !!!!
Looking at how the cybertruck is build, half its price will be the ALON sheets at like 20k per square meter.
There is confusion with the terms I feel. ALON is a ceramic, just like Al2O3 (alumina) is a ceramic. It does have the metal aluminium at its base but the chemical bonds are totally different (covalent rather than metallic). Nobody would call alumina transparent aluminium or zirconium dioxide transparent zirconium, or silicate glas transparent silicon.
You can create amorphous (i.e. glas) metals but they will not be transparent as they still have metallic bonds (i.e free electrons) just without the crystalline structure on a large scale. On the tiniest scale like the nearest neighbouring atoms might possess some resemblance of a proper crystal structure but some atoms farther away that is completely lost. Pure metals can in fact never be produced as glas, some alloys can be cooled so quick that they don't crystallize but only in small pieces and very thin. There are some rather complicated alloys that would crystallize in very complex structures that take time to build, so they can be produced into thicker amorphous metals. They usually consist of very expensive metals though.
question what if there is a fire or a crash and u need to break the window to get the driver out?
Looks like a great product.
Hopefully a way can be found to reduce manufacturing costs.
Did the truck ever make it to market tho
NASA Pilot "Is it rock proof?" 🤣
That would be a great thing to have on the Cybertruck and other things too!
Many more things will be revealed such as wheels, taillight
If hummer ev tailgate cost 6k, i don't want to imagine how much this will cost.
hell yeah!!!!
Please use (at least in addition) metric measures... thanks
Crazy how I never thought about it
It’s all fun and games until your cybertruck skids into a lake with the windows up
So, would bullets made of Alon be more penetrating and deformation resistant than traditional AP rounds?
Me thinks yes, and I have no doubt that's being tested as well.
Can it be recycled?
Can it be used in vehicles to eliminate blind spots associated with hard tops?
No. One of the properties that makes it good is *lightness* that's a property that makes shitty bullets. They are made out of lead because it's heavy. You could make them out of lighter metals but they get progressively weaker. Nobody is going to make aluminum bullets since it won't do good bullet things.
Wow transparent aluminum!
It sounds interesting
Make a suit of this for “Dune” shielding armor
I love the idea, don't love the price, but it's growing on me.
Awesome 😎
If you look closely, at the 6:41 mark, (when tlking about pricing of transparent aluminum), there is a small video clip of the Cybertruck reveal where Elon is speaking to the crowd before Franz throws the first ball. The driver's glass actually opens slightly so that it isn't 100% closed. This is what led to the Tesla Glass cracking, although, as it was built to do, there was no entry into the cabin.
The window was closed when the ball was thrown.
But both windows? Sounds highly unlikely to me.
Speaking of materials: Materials Scientists at M.I.T. have discovered the driest substance in the universe. It's those powdered sugar mini donuts. (ʘ_ʘ)
Cannot wait for my Cyber Truck ❤
Yea how do first responders make entry during an emergency if the doors are locked or unable to open
Cool glass!
Of course! Yay!!!
Hell yeah
So top tier glass is an option many can choose. Else why not just stick with the regular glass or the original glass that broke.
Love it !!!
some smart phone screens are made of synthetic sapphire, which is very strong and can block a 50 cal if layered thick enough
Thank you! So glad to hear that Tesla will be manufacturing this glass for the CyberTruck. I was wondering what the replacement would be.
As the video clearly explains, Tesla will not be manufacturing this glass for the truck. They will be getting it from a company that already makes it.
WANT !!!
Well Hell Yeah! "Scotty" would be proud!
the perfect getaway car
I want it on my Omega speedmaster watch !
how do you break the glass in an emergency?
Definitely want Alon for my Cybertruck glass!!!!
It's really optimal. Thanks for your comment and have a good day !
You're windshield alone would cost $25K
@@jpegjpg Fine with me!
expect Cybertrucks to be delivered by 3030 if production starts in 2023 as estimated. and at many times the cost quoted. no way it will be delivered at 40k a unit
Very cool! I suspected really that the cybertruck, and indeed ALL of Elon's technologies would be destined for Mars. It's a natural fit for a colony. All good wishes!
This is so cool. Its a pitty we will never see the Tesla Cybertruck in Norway 😢
In 2023, I guess so
We won't see cybertruck any were else to ,when will he start selling it ,i have booked the cyber truck and still waiting. Will it come in next 10 years🤔
@@petername2608 we will see if next year will be your year 😁
Take a screen shot of a photo because nobody might ever see one. Last week it was a boat truck and now it's transparent metal glass because the apparent shatter proof glass shattered. He keep coming out with these engineering tasks that can't be achieved yet
It's Alum(Alon)
"sledge hammer cracked the corner of the glass, so it was weakened"
but you only hit the driver side door, not the backseat door..... and both cracked from the ball bearing all the same.
If they cracked the corner of the front doors window. Why did the back door window break?
Clear metal, nicknamed "transparent" metal. So far to the public, is implemented as aluminum. It's (any) metal with atomic formation boiled/expansion/foamed, with low integrity % changes, to allow light particle to sync through it like clear glass.
Thanks for useful information !!
@@TeslaCarWorld lol
But how heavy it is?
we don't need windows in the usual sense..use visual screens inside instead. Or something worn on the eyes with 3d desplay..Giving 360 view. Way better.
Yes because I’m tired of replacing windshields every 3 years due to chips pits and cracks.
Rescue can cut the car to bits which they do even if they had easy access.
can they please use it on the corners of the car? Eliminating blind spots would be a revolution in car design.
With respect to Alon, develop it and bring it on!
It was developed in the early 1970's. AlON is not new. Been around nearly 50 years now.
I mean, sure, it would be stronger forever, basically impenetrable, but to me, as a consumer, it would depend on how much more it would make the vehicle cost. If it only added a few thousand, I guess I might consider it, but if I guess it would cost an additional $20,000 or more, I don't think it is necessary here on earth. So, I would opt for the original glass in the prototype model at the reveal. I still put my order in then and still want the truck.
I can't just envision some 'astro-bubba' doing 4-wheel burnouts on Mars in his pressurized cyber truck. 😅
powered aluminum is also an explosive... oxidizer*
Car glass is supposed to shatter and not withstand great imapct.
Do you want to burn alive with all your battery cells, because the guy stopping at your car wreck is not able to break the glass and pull you out?
Or at least have a good grip on the stuck door?
Do you want to spread your brains and skull fragments on the inside of your windshield because it's "cool" ?
I don't think so.
Yawn. Just how many collisions have you gone to where people burned alive? I was a law enforcement traffic investigator and in 15 yrs as traffic, I had 1, yrs just one car catch on fire and two people died.
They were driving a 1930 Ford model A, where the gas tank is at the bottom of the front windshield.
Just our station handled (we had 29) had about 3500-4000 collisions a yr. Multiply that by 15 yrs and that’s 52-60,000 collisions with 1 fatality. In an almost 90 yr old car. They crashed into a tree.
Also, there’s ~ 400 car fires in the US every day. Electric cars are about 1/50th that. If you gonna state something, at least be accurate and NOT EMOTIONAL.
You can’t debate emotions. Just facts.
Im also an ex aerospace engineer….and I can tell you the reason DOT wants the glass to shatter, is because they don’t want large sections of glass going into the passenger compartment. That’s why there’s a thin layer of plastic between layers of glass in your car, keeping the glass from coming apart.
@@yingnyang2889 Besides all the other reasons, yes.
@@tedmoss going back to first principles of engineering, the best part is no parts. So the best glass, is one that never needs replacing.
That’s why tesla went to a structural battery…just like we’ve had structural fuel tanks in aero planes for almost 75 yrs. They made the gas tank in the shape of a wing, serving two purposes with one design.
I have been wondering as well, with such strong materials how safe can they engineer it. I know that tesla puts safety first. After they start crashing testing would be interesting to see the data.
Call it multi planet truck but i like (cyber truck)
Will be great for subs 2
I want my whole vehicle to be transparent.
that's gonna be a bit awkward if you are changing on a road trip, or you can get stuff stolen easily because people can see what you have
I will bet you like to drive you truck naked as well.
Yes if it means cheaper.
Instead of alunium mix glass why not use titanium???
Scotty did visit Earth and leave his mark. Amazing.
Aylon helmets would be cool. YES - I want this material on my iPhone.
This was Scotty from Star Treks idea!
So much for being a sustainable solution.
Not sure what you mean, but sustainable doesn't mean to be made cheep.
@@louren1951 making glass is an energy intensive process, making bullet proof glass capable of stopping small to medium calibre bullets is HIGHLY intensive energy process. Not the Tesla doctrine to date, but so guess Elon doesn’t care about that fact when it come to the Cybertruck.
rip the cops trying to break your window
Excelencia y Excelencia y Excelencia y más 🧠Genio Tesla Estadio Orgulloso
Can it stop gallium? Gold can be hammered clear ?
of course I want it
Want this car immediately
It was pretty naive to think the glass would withstand a steel ball impacting it without damage. The glass was clearly a laminate of glass and acrylate, the usual combination for bullet proofing windows. This does stop bullets but not without the damage seen in the Tesla demonstration.
or commonly known as sapphire
Not sure that "transparent metal" is an accurate description of Alon...the scientist said the resulting compound, after processing, is a "ceramic."
It had to go to this. We all knew that Elon needed Alon for the infamous cracked window incident. I know that he could make it less expensive to produce, if anyone could.
that would prob be an upgrade option
Elon using ALON glass is pretty cool
In space micrometeriods travel a lot faster and have dramatically more kinetic energy than a bullet.
It's gonna' have to be an imperative to send a stripped down Starship over and back to Mars remotely, then check out any damage.
And THIS time the glass is guaranteed to shatter when you barely tap it.
It’s definitely cool until someone passes out in the truck alone. No breaking those windows 😂
Do I want a material that used in space vehicles on my truck?......yes please. Heck yeah.
You should do a little more research before writing your script. Transparent Aluminum(Aluminium oxynitride aka AlON) is a Ceramic. It was a thing long before Star Trek made people aware of it. Developed in a joint effort by Japan, the US, and France in the early 1970's. They wanted it for Military applications. I first learned of it before the Movie came out. We used it in Recon camera pods in the USAF back in the 80's. It's used in TV guided rockets as well.
What happens when first respondents need to break the window to drag someone out of a car that is on fire/ going to explode?
What's going to happen when you got over the Pacific Ocean & have only two engines! Professionals are working on this.
Exactly my question. The answer is you die.
"ALON" is the ultimate windscreen glass, and I feel that everyone would like to have this type of glass in their car.
I wouldn't. What if something goes wrong and you want to go out?
Do I want the futuristic transparent aluminum glass Scotty had made in 1986 ?! Uh ,YEAH !!!!
I first heard about transparent metal back in 2005 or 2006.
Glass is going to become less of a problem with alon. as soon as they figure out how to bring down the price
Prices will drop as manufacturing increases, so it may have dropped lower than what we found, and Tesla may have their own formulation and process that makes mass production cheaper, about $4 - 5$ per square inch. This is a good signal. Thanks
Needs to be standard material on cars today due to the number of road rage shootings.
Right. Cybertruck is a safe vehicle. Thanks
How can the driver for passenger break a window to get out of a vehicle that is caught on fire and escape ???
Get into Aerospace. Ive been machining transparent aluminum for 5 years now
