Abstract
An anti-ballistic protection system for protecting a space in a building or vehicle comprising a protective blind including plurality of slats or a sheet of a laminated material having a plurality of layers of lightweight, flexible, ballistic resistant material which are secured together using a glue, heat weld, or stitching. The system may include an automated control system operably configured to cause a change in state of the blind from a retracted state to a protective deployed state, which may include a sensing system operably configured to detect a threatening event, wherein the sensing system upon sensing the threatening event triggers the blind to transition from the retracted state to the deployed protective state such that in the protective state, the blinds are adapted to be resistant to penetration by high-speed ballistic objects such as bullets.
