Thus, the low emissivity film may express a color.

A compact arrangement of antennas in a glazing is disclosed, which allows a plurality of antenna wires to be connected to an external circuit by a single contact. Parallel conductors, in direct current isolation from each other so that alternating current coupling occurs between them, are embedded at different depths in the thickness of a ply of plastic material. In plan view, conductors at different depths may be positioned closer to each other than in the prior art, so antennas connected to them are less obtrusive and may even be hidden completely under an obscuration band. Different widths of parallel conductor may be used. A thin antenna, connected to a thin conductor, may be positioned in a vision area of a glazing without impeding the view.

The complexity of modern automotive glazing is increasing as more and more technology is being integrated with the glazing. As the industry moves towards full autonomous electric vehicles and as consumers demand increased levels of comfort, convenience, and safety this trend will only increase. It is now common to have electrical components embedded within laminated glazing. However, making electrical connections to embedded components can be challenging. The flexible circuit of the disclosure, which can provide an electrical connection to multiple complex circuits, comprises a flexible circuit with at least one insulating layer, at least one conductive layer and with at least one sharp fold in the flexible circuit. This approach substantially reduces the quantity of material that is wasted, facilitates assembly of the laminate, and reduces cost.
