Windows are one of the most complex determinants of the office indoor environment and have a significant impact on the overall energy demand for electric lighting, heating and cooling, which typically account for more than 50% and often more than 70% of th ...

The study uses a domestic dwelling as the setting to investigate and explore the applicability of daylighting metrics for residential buildings. The metrics address daylight provision for task and electric lighting usage. In addition to these it also inves ...
We analyze the relative relevance of Gabor amplitudes and phases for face recognition. We propose an algorithm to reliably estimate offset point disparities from phase differences and show that disparity corrected Gabor phase differences are well suited fo ...
A reliable computer simulation of natural and artificial lighting of an indoor environment requires the thorough knowledge of the angular intensity distribution of light scattered or emitted by the various objects involved such as the illuminated surfaces, ...
High dynamic range imaging has been shown to be a reliable tool to assess luminance maps and glare risk probability in buildings. However, there are some limitations of image capturing time, especially when dealing with highly dynamic and contrasted daylig ...
This presentation will discuss how recent findings in photobiology about the correlation between lighting and the human circadian system can prospectively be applied to architectural design, with a focus on healthcare and housing environments. Outcomes of ...
Most recent approaches to monocular non-rigid 3D shape recovery rely on exploiting point correspondences and work best when the whole surface is well-textured. The alternative is to rely either on contours or shading information, which has only been demons ...
Light has an important visual and non-visual impact on humans. Most of our information exchange, especially within office working spaces, occurs through it, our circadian rhythms are directly influenced by its presence. On the other hand, artificial lighti ...
The intent of this Design Guide is to introduce the topic of sustainability, present its elements, and explain how it affects the design of lighting in process and product. This document is structured into two major sections. Section 1.0 introduces sustain ...
Advanced daylighting systems can be effective in increasing light levels in building spaces and reducing energy consumption due to electric lighting. However, a recurring issue found in most existing daylighting systems is the necessity of coupling the lig ...
