Abstract: Embodiments include insulating glazing units with a photovoltaic cell structure disposed within and related methods. In some embodiments, the insulating glazing unit can include a first transparent pane and a second transparent pane. The insulating glazing unit can further include an internal space disposed between the first and second transparent panes and a spacer unit disposed between the first and second transparent panes. The spacer unit can be disposed adjacent to the perimeter of the first transparent pane and the second transparent pane. The spacer unit can have an inward surface facing the internal space. A photovoltaic cell structure can be disposed between the first and second transparent panes. The photovoltaic cell structure can be disposed over at least a portion of the inward surface of the spacer unit. The photovoltaic cell structure can include a photovoltaically active surface facing the internal space. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Abstract: Embodiments include fenestration units with active sound canceling properties, retrofit units with active sound canceling properties and related methods. In an embodiment a fenestration unit with active sound canceling properties can include an glazing unit including an exterior transparent pane, an interior transparent pane, and an internal space disposed between the exterior and interior transparent panes. The fenestration unit can include an active noise cancellation system including an exterior module including a sound input device and a signal emitter. An interior module can include a signal receiver to receive the signal from the signal emitter, and a vibration generator configured to vibrate the interior transparent pane. A sound cancellation control module can control the vibration generator to vibrate the interior transparent pane and generate pressure waves causing destructive interference with a portion of the sound waves received by the sound input device. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Abstract: Fenestration lock assemblies, fenestration units including the lock assemblies, and methods of operating the lock assemblies. The lock assemblies offer a lock assembly construction that is capable of being assembled, installed, and used in a purely manual mode (i.e., in the absence of any driving unit such as, e.g., a motor, solenoid, etc.) or that may be assembled, installed, and used with a driving unit such that the lock assembly can be operated manually or in a driven mode, with the manual and driven modes of operation being unaffected by each other.

Abstract: Embodiments include systems with active sound canceling properties, fenestration units with active sound canceling properties, retrofit units with active sound canceling properties and related methods. In an embodiment a system can include a sound cancellation device include a sensing element to detect vibration of a transparent pane and/or a sound input device configured to detect sound incident on the transparent pane, as well as a vibration generator configured to vibrate the transparent pane and a sound cancellation control module. The sound cancellation control module can evaluate the detected vibration of the transparent pane at two or more discrete frequency bands. The sound cancellation control module can cause the vibration generator to vibrate the transparent pane causing destructive interference with sound waves at the two or more discrete frequency bands. Other embodiments are also included herein.
