IMO, Corning, Inc. is one of America's premier companies and an international leader in glass and ceramic research and development as well as manufacture. Gorilla glass probably is something familiar to almost everyone, but the applications for that and even newer technologies go well beyond your iPhone: e.g. from kitchens to vehicles to displays to computer chips to space craft and applications like the Hubble and James Webb telescopes.This is an excellent introductory video, in particular explaining how "acoustic glass," used in new Tesla Model 3's, for instance (but not from Corning, Peru-based AGP is one of their suppliers, I think), actually works. Thank you, Sandy & Munro team and thanks to the Corning folk!
It’s a little nuanced, but Corning just makes the glass… companies like AGP construct the material (like the windshield or side window). That’s why their name is on it….
@@jakepagragan5525 Thanks. It's a big industry. In retrospect, the video demonstrations were designed for potential customers. Those would most likely be other companies and suppliers who use the glass to make things (like windows for cars).
The more you know the more you know you don't know. That's why Munro Live videos are such a treat. This one was over the top in information. Fascinating material.
Super cool. I met the Corning scientist folks (different than here) at that headquarters back in 2012, but for PV panel glass options. I learned so much from them. It's a solid American company and glass is wicked complex.
Wow! That was very instructive. To think that Steve Jobs insisted on glass in lieu of plastic for the iPhone and that motivated the development of gorilla glass for the original iPhone in 2007.
Imagine a smartphone with a plastic display panel, and then a startlingly powerful gust of wind comes down the street picking up sand and grit and depositing some of it in your pocket - which is what actually happened to me the other year - and as your phone bounces around in there together with the grit as you walk, it "polishes" the screen into a scratchy mess. So now you either gotta pay to replace the display, or live with a permanently marred screen for the rest of that phone's natural life... What happened to me is the grit polished my earphone charging case into a mess, but the phone was completely fine, since it had a hardened glass screen. :D
The glass was actually first developed in the 60s for cars and military I beleive. It didn't work out due to manufacturing or economic issues, and then revisited it with modern techniques. It is pretty interesting. I was just watching a video on something not related, and it touched on gorilla glass on the science they figured out back then. Something about electrons? I cannot remember for the life of me, and I am so mad. It was just like a week ago. Why do I learn things for a day.
I could lose myself for weeks in those Corning labs learning the minutia of creating various glass types, coatings, etc. I got a bit of that as a photographer and the coatings applied to glass surfaces to keep light scatter down, not to mention various glass formulas (i.e. Schott Glass used by Leica and Zeiss) and lenses made from fluorite and other exotic materials.
Thanks Sandy and Corning team for this wonderful insight into glass technology. The one question that wasn’t asked is when will we have a touchscreen display that doesn’t show fingerprints.??
"a little window into what it's like to be a glass company" (48:54). Well put, but more like a large, flexible window. I use 1980s Corning Visions cookware regularly and still impressed with that now-40-yo technology.
Thank you Sandy!! for us mech design engineers this is more valuable than Gold! (next time I visit Michigan i'll make sure to visit your shop and say Hi)
The amount of engineering that goes into an automobile is just astounding! Very informative video, I had no idea about all this stuff. And I was unaware that the Jeep Wrangle now has Gorilla glass, my 2015 sure could have used that stuff, because driving a brick down the road gets windshield nicks like crazy.
What a wonderful team at Corning, given the fact that they're such a biga.s global company. Imagine the amount of R&D investment that must have gone in, and the effort put in to come up with such products.
congratulations! nice vehicle products ya'll !! the glass has nice esthetics also!🍌👍well look @ all this! bruh!! so cool to see the many QC standards! Sandy, wow! love it! 🍒🍒🫐🥞🍖
Awesome ! U.S. Tech at its best ! Go Corning ! ( love the Corelle ) Next up:: Photovoltaic clear glass and electric tinting control ? Would be great on the Aptera !
So they've come up with bendable glass. Should make it easier and cheaper to install touch screen interfaces that wrap around the user. I could see the application in Spacecraft too.
Flexible glass is not new. The Gorilla Glass screen protectors that have been available for phones for many years are far more flexible (because they are thinner as explained in video). A cell phone length of glass can be bent into a "U" shape (70mm radius?). The glass fiber optic cables used for data and laser cutting or welding is also actually glass and are quite flexible too.
Fascinating, thank you. Adjustable tinting would have been interesting to discuss. Clarity as Rake angle increases is important. Willl that improve rain sensors?
This may be unique to me, but I tend to get motion sickness when traveling in a car in the fall and there are a lot of leafless trees lining the road and the sunlight has a strobe like effect through the trees. Having that effect reflected in the dash is a problem for me. See the moving background discussion at approximately 25:50.
Side windows that don't break in a side impact crash can work with the side air bags to prevent parts on the front of the striking vehicle or pole from hitting the passengers in the target vehicle in the head directly or spreading out the impact force.
Over a hundred years ago Corning invented Pyrex glass. It's a borosilicate glass. Very strong very low thermal expansion. But in the past few decades they sold the name to a Chinese company. Corning no longer manufactures Pyrex glass for home use. It's now a soda glass. Regarding the Auto industry, the windshield of the Tesla Cybertruck is borosilicate glass. I wonder who makes it. And it would be interesting to know why Tesla chose the VERY expensive borosilicate glass over Corning gorilla Glass for the huge windshield. Very likely because of its significantly superior strength.
Good point. Most "consumer" Pyrex today is just "soda glass" that has been tempered. The process doe work well as in many (more than 10) years I've only had one "Pyrex" container fail. It's interesting that the tempered glass can withstand a good amount of thermal stress (e.g.: pouring cold water into a hot container or the reverse.)
@@markplott4820not true, my Model Y had maiden windshield from Fuyao and now it's Saint Gobain-Sekurit. Car is from Berlin. Shanghai Teslas come with Fuyao glass.
What we NEED you guys to create is a glass and, whatever kind of contraption needed, so that it can clean itself (no, water sprays really don’t do the trick well) or be completely hydrophobic, everything phobic, so that nothing can stick to the area around a camera’s aperture and obscure the self driving ‘eyes’
They've had self-cleaning glass for a couple of decades. It takes a while for the particles to fall off. But making something impossible to touch is an unrealistic request.😊
@@sparksmcgee6641 everything is impossible, until it isn’t. That’s these guys job lol. We need cameras that can see and not get obstructed by debris.. i dunno the answer.. maybe special phobic glass with a water sprayer or air puffer or something to blow it clean.. but someone better figure it out
@airheart1 It's out there buy do you really want to pay more to get that instead of just taking a paper towel from the squeegee rack while fueling up and wiping them off? Remember when Mercedes put windshield wipers on their headlights? Was that late 80s???? They didn't matter enough to keep them.
@@sparksmcgee6641 you don’t understand the use case I’m talking about. Self driving cars are around the corner. And their eyes are cameras. And those cameras need to be kept clean. Not a little bit.. completely. If we’re going to have a future of safer and more convenient automobile travel, we need a way to keep they eyes of these systems clean. For now, that means multiple cameras.. and they need lenses that can clear ice, snow, rain, mud and bugs.. and whatever else I’m not thinking of.
The Gorilla Glass on my Galaxy smartphones always holds up really well. I don't even bother with the protective film. It's an unnecessary hindrance in my experience.
I'll bite: what make glass, "Gorilla?" There are glass compositions that can be used for stove tops. Spilling water on a burner doesn't usually cause problems. (We did have some chipping when some plastic melted onto the glass.) Is the Gorilla a combination of a special formula with tempering added or what?
Great video..... Now, if they could make a chip proof windshield! My MY is 4 years old and has had 4 windshields replaced and yes, all factory installed Tesla glass....
It will certainly be useful to have a much better detailed Heads Up Display, so that I can have more time to find my HVAC controls on the other display.
display glass is interesting as it will be more crucial in future vehicles. exterior glass development im skeptical. I believe we will see more future vehicles with less exterior glass because it helps with manufacturing cost, less noise, more rigid doors, less risk damage. Future cars will have more displays as driving becomes easier or more automated and the exterior cameras are being reused to display the road/environment.
If you liked this, Adam and Jamie from Mythbusters did a couple (sponsored) videos on Corning glass that are pretty good: th-cam.com/video/12OSBJwogFc/w-d-xo.html
the question is, how much more it cost to make and how much more it would cost the costumer ( i mean the person that buys the car) to get this instead the "normal" glass?
Yes Corning developed Gorilla Glass in 1960 under the name ‘Project Muscle’. It was originally thought to be best used in aircraft and automotive applications. It was complicated and expensive to manufacture. In 2005 they revisited the project using more modern manufacturing methods and found they could consistently manufacture the material at an increased strength and reasonable cost. There have been about 10 different versions of Gorilla Glass developed since then. Each uses different methods to enhance and alter various properties for more specific applications.
11:08 In vehicles where airbags are present in many cases this rule can be ignored provided there will be an airbag in place to cushion the blow. Strong windows can also work with airbags to spread out impact forces during collisions and prevent ejection of foolish unbelted occupants.
Fusion5 Glass shown here was developed to deliver exactly that. They showed brief video clips of a dart impact test but didn't elaborate on the specifics in the video.
Did you ask them why my cell phone glass always breaks when dropped from my pocket? It is using Gorilla Glass Victus. I should be able to drop a 15 pound weight on it.
We'll see how technology evolves. Personally I foresee Tesla taking lead and displays becoming a thing of the past, more or less, as FSD becomes more prominent. As well as neuralink becoming more prominent, visual data will fall to the background, even though they will hack the optic nerve. Point being that we will simply have a knowledge of higher order concepts without the need for even making visual representations of them.
Practically every country in the world, historically to the present, is involved glass research and famous for some types of glass or glass art. Here are several of the top glass companies with strong R&D components: Saint-Gobain (France), AGC Inc. (Japan), GENTEX CORPORATION (US), Corning Incorporated (US) But the "biggest producer" of glass is probably China.
