A new approach to angular selective filtering of the solar radiation without using the sunlight redistribution devices is proposed. Parallel strips of chromogenic materials on two surfaces of the pane(s) form an optical filter having angular selective light transmission. Clarified methods to calculate the optimum slope angle of the strips on the pane(s), their widths and relative position on two surfaces considering the seasonal and daily change in the solar radiation, the location of the building and the window's azimuth are presented. Such a smart window blocks the direct radiation in a preset angular range and transmits the scattered and reflected radiation that is provides comfortable daylighting indoors.
