    Architectural glass exhibits excellent transparency and reflective characteristics, which often makes it difficult for birds to distinguish during flight, leading to fatal collisions or severe injuries. It is estimated that hundreds of millions of birds are killed annually by glass curtain in North America. As a critical migration route for migratory birds in China, the potential threat posed by the built environment to birds is even more serious. Therefore, this paper focuses on the phenomenon of bird collisions with architectural glass, discusses the causes and characteristics of such collisions, while combines existing research results to review the research status of the formation of haze patterns on glass surface and the preparation of ultraviolet reflective flim on glass surface, and summarizes and analyzes the application status of bird impact prevention measures at home and abroad, aiming to propose scientific strategies and reference for protecting biodiversity and looks forward to the future development of bird-friendly glass technology.
