Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On September 22, 2008, SmartGlass International Ltd. (SGI), a licensee of
Research Frontiers Inc., announced in a press release that its
SPD-SmartGlass architectural window product won the Most Innovative Product
Award at the 100% Detail Show in London, England.

After explaininf how SPD-Smart windows work, and discussing its use as a
sustainable building technology that gives architects, developers and building
operators substantial daylighting and other benefits because of its ability
to precisely regulate the passage of light, glare and heat through windows, SGI
also noted that as a dynamic glazing system, SPD-SmartGlass offers users
unprecedented control over their environment and view preservation and interior
shading, all at the touch of a button and while blocking more than 99% of
harmful UV light.
..

"Winning the Most Innovative Product Award with our
SPD-SmartGlass products caps a tremendously successful week
for SmartGlass International at 100% Detail," said Alan Saxby,
UK Sales Manager of SmartGlass International. "We opened the
week by announcing our stand; T28 would feature several
SPD-SmartGlass windows and that we recently had completed
an SPD-SmartGlass rooflight installation in London. We then
learned that our SPD-SmartGlass product was a finalist for the
Most Innovative Product Award. The show itself was very
well-attended, particularly by architects from large practices
throughout Europe, middle east and far east, and interest in our
SPD-SmartGlass as a sustainable building technology was
particularly strong. This gave us opportunities with architects
and potential end-users, many of whom had specific projects in
mind, with one strong enquiry for in excess of 5,000 m2 of
SPD-SmartGlass. Of course, the week's success was capped by
our winning the award which we see as a further strengthening
of the SmartGlass International brand."

    SPD-SmartGlass from SmartGlass International Wins
        Most Innovative Product of the Show Award
                at 100% Detail London 2008

Dublin, Ireland, September 22, 2008 - SmartGlass International
Ltd. (SGI), a licensee of Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq:
REFR), announced that its SPD-SmartGlass architectural
window product won the Most Innovative Product Award at the
100% Detail Show in London, England. 100% Detail is a
premier exhibition featuring the latest developments in
sustainability, innovation and design for the building
environment. Supported by the industry publication
Architecture Today, judging for the prestigious Most Innovative
Product Award was done by some of the leading names in
architecture and design and was based on several factors
including innovation, the use of materials and technology, and
sustainability.

The operating principle of SPD-SmartGlass is simple and offers
exceptional energy-saving potential. Within the patented SPD
film are millions of microscopic particles that randomly orient
when no voltage is present. In this state over 99% of light is
blocked from passing through the film. As voltage is introduced,
the particles align and allow light to pass. Adjusting the voltage
allows users to regulate or "tune" the glazing to any desired state
between very dark and fully clear. The film is laminated
between panes of glass or polycarbonate to produce SPD-Smart
windows, doors, skylights, partitions, sunroofs and other
products.

Buildings account for approximately forty percent of the energy
used in many regions of the World. A growing body of research
finds that architectural daylighting (i.e. the controlled
introduction of natural light into a building) is a sustainable
strategy because it can reduce demands on a building's HVAC
systems, lower the consumption of electricity used to power
interior lighting, improve occupant well-being and productivity,
and support the environment.

SPD-SmartGlass manufactured by SmartGlass International
gives architects, developers and building operators substantial
daylighting and other benefits because of its ability to precisely
regulate the passage of light, glare and heat through windows.
As a dynamic glazing system, SPD-SmartGlass offers view
preservation and interior shading, all at the touch of a button and
while blocking more than 99% of harmful UV light. It gives
users unprecedented control over their environment.

"Winning the Most Innovative Product Award with our
SPD-SmartGlass products caps a tremendously successful week
for SmartGlass International at 100% Detail," said Alan Saxby,
UK Sales Manager of SmartGlass International. "We opened the
week by announcing our stand; T28 would feature several
SPD-SmartGlass windows and that we recently had completed
an SPD-SmartGlass rooflight installation in London. We then
learned that our SPD-SmartGlass product was a finalist for the
Most Innovative Product Award. The show itself was very

our winning the award which we see as a further strengthening
of the SmartGlass International brand."
