Exhibit Its Cromalite Brand
of SPD-SmartGlass at Vitrum 2009

On October 27, 2009, it was announced that Isoclima S.p.A., a licensee of Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq: REFR) will exhibit its Cromalite(R) brand of SPD-SmartGlass(tm) at Vitrum 2009 being held from October 28-31, 2009 at the Fiera Milano Complex in Rho, Italy.

Vitrum 2009 is the international trade fair for machinery, equipment and systems for the processing of flat glass, hollow glass, and finished glass products. The most recent Vitrum trade fair in 2007 attracted more than 17,000 visitors from across the world. More information about Vitrum 2009 can be found at www.vitrum-milano.it.

Isoclima will feature a prototype back window for a luxury vehicle made with its Cromalite brand of SPD-SmartGlass. The large back window measures 1.4 by 0.85 meters (55 x 33 inches), is curved, and has a range of visible light transmission of approximately 1% to 50%.

'The Cromalite glass panels of today are much stronger and more durable than the Cromalite made by our company even just a year ago,' commented Dr. Alberto Bertolini, General Director of Isoclima. 'In addition to our work with customers in the automotive and marine markets, we are beginning now to offer Cromalite for architectural smart glass projects as well.'

Isoclima will exhibit Cromalite and other products at its booth located in Pavilion 15, Stand K01. More information about Isoclima can be found at www.isoclima.net.
