Performance investigation of cameras using HDR sensors for daylight glare evaluations

Jan Wienold, Dong Hyun Kim, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

This study presents a novel framework for evaluating the luminance measurement capabilities of High Dynamic Range (HDR) sensor cameras in indoor glare conditions. Results indicate that the practical usage range of the CSEM VIP camera is significantly lower ...

Comparison of questionnaire items for discomfort glare studies in daylit spaces

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

When studying discomfort glare, researchers tend to rely on a single questionnaire item to obtain user evaluations. It is unclear whether the choice of questionnaire item affects the distribution of user responses and leads to inconsistencies between studi ...

Visual comfort without borders: Extending daylight glare prediction to dim daylit environments

Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

Avoiding discomfort glare is one of the critical aspects of maintaining visual comfort, which significantly influences occupants' overall satisfaction with their indoor environment. Discomfort glare prediction models have been developed for various lightin ...

User Evaluations of Contrast-Dominant Discomfort Glare Dim Daylit Scenarios: Preliminary Findings

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

Discomfort glare metrics typically consider at least one of the two effects of discomfort glare-saturation and contrast-in their equation. The former occurs when there is an excessively bright glare source in the field of view, while the latter occurs when ...

Comparing performance of discomfort glare metrics in high and low adaptation levels

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Mandana Sarey Khanie, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

Current discomfort glare prediction metrics usually account for at least one of the two categories of effects that induce discomfort glare – the saturation and contrast effects. Saturation-driven metrics (overall illuminance on the eye) are suited for brig ...

Spatial evaluation of potential saturation and contrast effects of discomfort glare in an open-plan office

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek, Stephen William Wasilewski

This paper analyzes the relative distribution of annual saturation and contrast effects of discomfort glare in a deep open-plan office. A previous comparative study has shown that while hybrid glare metrics were found to predict glare well in most scenario ...

Calibration and Validation of Climate-Based Daylighting Models Based on One-Time Field Measurements: Office Buildings in the Tropics

Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

Calibrated climate-based lighting simulation models of buildings have the capacity to perform an essential role in postoccupancy evaluations, such as annual frequency assessments of daylighting quality and visual discomfort. However, in most postoccupancy ...

Subjective and Measured Evidence for Residential Lighting Metrics in the Tropics

Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

This paper presents a post-occupancy daylighting study within 17 residences in Singapore consisting of 35 participants. Each residence was visited, and a calibrated daylighting model was constructed and validated based upon 100's of individual illuminance ...
