Daylight regulated by automated external Venetian blinds based on HDR sky luminance mapping in winter

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

Automated shading systems have the potential to exploit daylight in buildings to save energy of artificial lighting and cooling loads and improve occupants'f visual comfort. This paper investigates the daylighting performance of automated Venetian blinds b ...

Automated Daylighting Control System based on Sky Luminance Monitoring and Lighting Computing

Yujie Wu

Sufficient daylight exposure contributes to occupants' productivity and health in buildings. However, excessive daylight ingress induces discomfort glare and increases the cooling load in warm seasons. The performance of manual shading systems is limited b ...

Sampling the Multiple Facets of Light

Gilles Baechler

The theme of this thesis revolves around three important manifestations of light, namely its corpuscular, wave and electromagnetic nature. Our goal is to exploit these principles to analyze, design and build imaging modalities by developing new signal proc ...

Characterization of a quasi-real-time lighting computing system based on HDR imaging

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Yujie Wu

In this paper we present the characterization of a calibrated embedded system for quasi real-time lighting computation based on HDR sky monitoring. To quantify its accuracy in lighting computation, we positioned the device in front of a test module with un ...

Color changing effects with cross-halftone prints

Roger Hersch, Petar Pjanic

We propose new methods for creating color varying prints with classical cyan, magenta, yellow inks on a metallic specularly reflecting or on a white diffusely reflecting substrate. We use a special cross-line halftone with optimized surface coverages of th ...

Smooth Shapes with Spherical Topology: Beyond Traditional Modeling, Efficient Deformation, and Interaction

Michaël Unser, Pablo Garcia-Amorena Garcia, Daniel Andreas Schmitter

Existing shape models with spherical topology are typically designed either in the discrete domain using interpolating polygon meshes or in the continuous domain using smooth but non-interpolating schemes such as subdivision or NURBS. Both polygon models a ...

Color reproduction, pattern hiding and image alternations with halftone prints on metal

Roger Hersch, Petar Pjanic

We propose new methods for creating color or achromatic images that are printed with classical cyan, magenta, yellow and a white diffusing ink on a metallic substrate. We optimize the surface coverages of the cyan, magenta, yellow and white inks in order t ...

Accurate recovery of a specularity from a few samples of the reflectance function

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Loïc Arnaud Baboulaz, Gilles Baechler

We present a new technique for estimating the specular peak of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) based on finite rate of innovation (FRI) sampling. The specular component of the BRDF varies rapidly, so it is challenging to acquire ...

Color Changing Prints on a Metallic Substrate

Petar Pjanic

Printing on a flat metallic substrate has gained popularity in recent years. The reflection of light on a specularly reflecting metallic substrate differs strongly from the reflection of light on a diffusely reflecting medium such as paper. Direct prints o ...
