The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In this way, a smart window made of an electrochromic material can block specific wavelengths of ultraviolet, visible or infrared light.
- The ability to control the transmittance of near-infrared light can increase the energy efficiency of a building, reducing the amount of energy needed to cool during summer and heat during winter.
- As the color change is persistent and energy needs only to be applied to effect a change, electrochromic materials are used to control the amount of light and heat allowed to pass through a surface, most commonly "smart windows".
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Electrochromism article was read about 8,700 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 56: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
