Research Frontiers Demonstrates SPD-Smart Windows Establishing New Benchmarks
    of Performance and Invites the Smart Glass Industry to Participate
           in Side-by-Side Public Evaluations and Comparisons


Woodbury, New York - June 14, 2010. Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq: REFR),
the developer and licensor of SPD-Smart(tm) light-control technology,
demonstrated at its Annual Meeting of Stockholders last Thursday
new benchmarks of performance for the smart glass industry, and
invited all industry participants to contribute products and provide data
for side-by-side public evaluations and comparisons.

Standing next to two large smart architectural window panels and a smart
aircraft dimmable window, all using Research Frontiers' patented SPD-Smart
light-control technology, Research Frontiers' President and CEO Joseph M.
Harary invited other smart window industry participants, particularly those
offering electrochromic products, to publish a more complete combination of
performance data and key performance specifications about their products.

Mr. Harary also invited other smart window companies to join Research Frontiers
in its efforts to educate the public by contributing full-sized product samples
to their industry peers for public comparison at upcoming major trade shows this
Fall, and participating in focus group studies and panel discussions.

At the Research Frontiers Annual Meeting several SPD-Smart products
were demonstrated:

o Two large architectural panels that were 3 feet wide and 6 feet tall
  which were set to automatically switch between their darkest tint and
  their clearest tint within seconds, and also were operable manually
  via a small remote control.

o An aircraft window which achieved 99.96% light blockage and permitted
  passengers to adjust their shading to any level from clear to dark
  within seconds and achieve 100% privacy in a fraction of one second.

o Two automobiles equipped with SPD-Smart sunroofs, side windows and
  sun visors.

These products were supplied courtesy of several licensees of Research
Frontiers and used SPD-Smart light-control film manufactured by Hitachi
Chemical Company, Ltd. under license from Research Frontiers. Hitachi Chemical
has announced the world's largest known production capacity of any smart window
technology, and even custom-made large SPD-Smart architectural windows can
typically be delivered to customers within 3-4 weeks. Research Frontiers has
also licensed most of the world's largest automotive glass suppliers, and is
working directly, along with its licensees, with several of the world's most
prestigious automobile manufacturers on SPD-Smart products for serial
production vehicles.

All of these products dramatically demonstrated the superior performance
benefits possible when everyday products are made "SPD-Smart" using Research
Frontiers patented light-control technology.

On exhibit at the Annual Meeting were SPD-Smart products used on both glass
and plastic windows and shades. Electrochromic technology effectively can only
be used on glass. This ability to use SPD-Smart film technology with shatter-
proof plastic as well as glass has importance where weight is an issue, or
where window strength and security are essential, such as on automobile roofs,
and bullet-resistant and hurricane/impact-resistant windows.

One of the most important performance characteristics discussed when comparing
smart window technologies is the time it takes for a user to control the amount
of light and glare to which they are subjected. SPD-Smart windows switch from
a very dark state to an optically clear state in 1-3 seconds. This is 15-20
times faster than the reported switching speed for electrochromic window shades
currently offered or under development in the aircraft industry, and more than
300 times faster than the 10 minutes or more that even relatively small
electrochromic windows for the architectural market are known to require to
switch. Electrochromic technology gets progressively slower to switch as the
surface area being shaded increases. In comparison, SPD-Smart light-control
technology in an aircraft window shade or in larger applications such as
windows, skylights or sunroofs for cars, boats or your home or office, will
switch from dark to clear in 1-3 seconds regardless of window size.

SPD-Smart windows allow more precise light-control by enabling the user to
select an infinite number of intermediate levels of tint from extremely dark to
clear, and with an impressive dynamic range of light control and the highest
contrast ratios reported for any smart window technology. Most architectural
windows using electrochromic technology do not have intermediate levels, instead
offering only two states of light transmission - tinted and clear. Some smaller
window applications, such as those used for the aircraft market, may offer 2-3
pre-set intermediate states - far from the unlimited tunability and control
of the tint that SPD-Smart technology offers.

Fast switching speed, maximum light blockage, and the ability to control
intermediate light transmission states are required to optimally achieve
energy efficiency needs and occupant comfort. For example, in architectural
projects, having the ability to quickly adapt the smart window to changing
environmental conditions and building needs - whether because of changing
exterior temperatures, peak day energy demands, the sudden presence or
absence of people occupying a room, or shifting cloud patterns - makes
SPD-Smart windows the most effective and efficient smart window shading
technology. Light-management needs are just as important on aircraft,
where rapidly changing light conditions and the movement of the aircraft
require immediate response to most effectively manage light and glare
(particularly in high-altitude, intense sunlight), and increase passenger
satisfaction, comfort and control.

"In any smart window, light and glare needs to be handled immediately
and completely. On aircraft, to best serve the needs of passengers and
operators, dimmable windows must confront the harshest light and glare
conditions encountered. At the meeting, we demonstrated just how
exceptional an SPD-equipped aircraft window shade, provided by our
licensee InspecTech Aero Service, performs when a plane banks into a
turn and the passengers' windows are flooded with direct sun," explained
Joe Harary. "We put a very bright, focused light 8 inches from InspecTech's
I-Shade brand of SPD-Smart window - and when switched, within seconds in
the darkest state with 100% privacy achieved, you could not see anything
except the faint outline of the filament from the light source. Based
upon our own observations, we do not believe this is possible with
electrochromic dimmable windows."

Research Frontiers and its licensees have the most experience with
variable light transmission aircraft window shades. The first SPD-equipped
aircraft window shades were installed by InspecTech in 2001 and are still
in service, in contrast to the first reported installation of EC dimmable
windows by PPG in late 2009. Today, InspecTech's SPD-Smart aerospace window
shades are currently flying on 24 different aircraft models (both airplanes
and helicopters). This success compares to one reported model that is
currently flying with electrochromic PPG window shades, and one additional
model under development.

SPD-Smart aircraft window shades are currently flying on the following
aircraft models:

o	Airbus A380 - OEM
o	Hawker 400XP
o	Hawker 800
o	Hawker 1000
o	Fairchild Merlin
o	Learjet 25
o	Learjet 35
o	Bell 430
o	Westwind I
o	King Air 300 Series
o	King Air C90
o	King Air 100
o	King Air 200
o	Bombardier Challenger 601
o	Cessna Conquest II
o	Cessna Citation I
o	Cessna Citation II
o	Eurocopter AS365
o	Commander 900
o	Dassault Falcon 20
o	Dassault Falcon 50
o	Beechjet
o	Nextant 400NEXT
o	Sikorsky S92 - OEM

Independent tests show that SPD-Smart windows can be configured to block
94% of solar heat gain, which is higher heat blockage than the best reported
double glazed window using any other smart glass technology, and over 5 times
more heat blockage than that managed by a typical energy-efficient double
glazed window. Additional energy savings can be achieved by using SPD-Smart
light-control film technology for heat and daylight harvesting. Potential
energy savings can be significant because buildings alone consume 40% of the
energy and 72% of the electricity used in the United States and in Europe.

Steve Abadi, the Chairman and CEO of Innovative Glass Corp. which is licensed
by Research Frontiers to offer SPD-Smart windows, skylights and other products
for the architectural market, also presented at the Annual Meeting a number
of projects that were either already completed or in the process of being
installed using SPD-SmartGlass for the commercial, residential and military
markets. These projects include:

o  residential projects in Florida for hurricane-rated windows

o  commercial projects in California including a high-tech R&D optics
   laboratory that used 24 SPD-Smart panels, each of which are each
   9 feet tall by 3 feet wide

o  residential projects in Washington, D.C.

o  a project for the military in Australia

o  a project emphasizing energy efficient smart windows at
   Fort Knox, Kentucky

o  an upcoming high-profile project in lower Manhattan specifying the
   use of 43 SPD-Smart polycarbonate panels, not only for its traditional
   functional uses of energy efficiency, view preservation and easy
   maintenance, but also as a way to create a multimedia experience for
   visitors to this project and help unify the building structure with the
   nature that surrounds it

o  a project in Manhattan that is a showroom for a high-end audio/video
   integrator

SPD-Smart light-control film technology transforms widely used products -
windows, skylights, curtainwalls, partitions, sunroofs and more - into
products that allow users to instantly and precisely control the light,
glare and heat entering a building or vehicle. SPD-SmartGlass is instantly
tunable to an infinite number of light transmission states regardless of
window size, and easily adapts to individual preferences using control
devices ranging from basic dimmer switches and photosensors to those that
are integrated into a building's or vehicle's intelligent control system.
These unequalled performance characteristics help optimize energy-savings
and human comfort, and they offer many other desired benefits such as
increased security, noise reduction, protection from harmful ultraviolet
light and the potential for aesthetically distinctive designs. On aircraft,
weight-saving light-control and shading systems are needed that reduce
cabin heat build-up, preserve views, offer privacy on-demand, and protect
passengers and interiors from harmful UV light. In a boat, glare from
the water and solar heat gain from the sun can pose particularly unique
issues that need heat, light and glare to be controlled and managed,
while also preserving views. In a home or office, managing energy and
preserving views are desired using windows and skylights with excellent
solar heat gain control properties and daylight harvesting benefits to
further reduce energy consumption and improve occupant comfort. SPD-Smart
light-control film technology can address all of these needs, thus allowing
elegant and efficient engineering and design solutions for the modern green
home, office, boat, car or aircraft.
