Lifetime of a projector's bulb and a smart glass?

Hello everyone,
I wonder what's the lifetime of a projector's bulb, when the projector is used in 3d printer- does the lifetime get shortened due to frequent turning on and off? If so, maybe it would be possible to eliminate turning off the bulb and use some material which can change its "transparency"- something like this one ? Did anyone try something similar?

ok, it occurs that I misunderstood this part of printing process. Thank you for your reply and explanation.
