The mirror-effect cover glass developed by Rocktech represents the perfect fusion of optical engineering and aesthetic design. In today’s competitive HMI market, where appearance and performance define user experience, this glass solution brings both elegance and functionality to the forefront.
Through advanced optical coating technology, the surface achieves a mirror-like reflection when the display is off, while maintaining full transparency and touch panel responsiveness when active. This innovation has already impressed customers in Europe, with feedback noting that “the mirror film exceeded their expectations.”
Built for smart mirror displays, luxury control panels, and automotive interiors, Rocktech’s mirror-effect glass is redefining how products look and feel — turning a simple screen into a design feature.
How the Mirror Effect Works
Rocktech applies precision optical coating layers that selectively control light reflection and transmission. When the display is off, these layers create a clear mirror reflection; when on, they allow vivid color and brightness to pass through. The technology is compatible with IPS displays and supports G+G or G+F touch structures.
The image below demonstrates the visual difference between a standard cover glass and Rocktech’s mirror-effect version.
While the normal CG appears matte and neutral, the mirror CG reflects surrounding objects with exceptional clarity — creating a sleek, high-end appearance when the display is off.
Unlike standard glass, which has a fixed reflective index, Rocktech’s mirror glass is engineered to balance optical reflectivity, clarity, and durability, making it ideal for high-end human–machine interface (HMI) designs.
