Convolutional neural network classifies visual stimuli from cortical response recorded with wide-field imaging in mice

Objective. The optic nerve is a good location for a visual neuroprosthesis. It can be targeted when a subject cannot receive a retinal prosthesis and it is less invasive than a cortical implant. The effectiveness of an electrical neuroprosthesis depends on ...

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 ...

Impact of Brightness on Glare Perception when Using Shading Fabrics

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann

Access to daylight and views out are usually recognized as beneficial to occupant comfort at the workplace. Simultaneously, discomfort glare due to direct sunlight is a known source of occupant dissatisfaction. Shading fabrics with low openness factor have ...

Transmittance thresholds of electrochromic glazing to achieve annual low-glare work environments

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

A recent study on the glare protection performance of electrochromic (EC) glazing showed that visible transmittance levels lower than 0.6% are necessary to achieve comfortable situations for sun positions, that were close to the central field of view. Howe ...

Comparison between CIE 2° and 10° field photopic luminosity functions V(λ) for calculating daylight discomfort glare metrics

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

The spectral sensitivity of the average human eye in photopic conditions is represented by the photopic luminosity function V (λ). The CIE has established the photopic luminosity functions for the 2o and 10o visual fields for a standard observer applicable ...

Validation of spectral simulation tools in the context of ipRGC-influenced light responses of building occupants

Marilyne Andersen, Clotilde Marie A Pierson

With the growing awareness about ipRGC-influenced light (IIL) responses, design applications related to these responses are flourishing. To compare design options and optimize lighting conditions for building occupants, lighting simulations are typically u ...

Glare assessment in a daylit workplace from a physiological perspective

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

Designing the buildings that facilitate optimum utilization of daylight is desirable for its many benefits [1], [2] yet challenging due to other intrinsic properties of daylight responsible for over-heating and discomfort glare [3]. Discomfort glare has be ...

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 ...

On Sensitivity to Glare and Its Relationship with Macular Pigment

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

Current trends in discomfort glare research have suggested the influence of physiological parameters on individual glare perception. To this end, we hypothesize that a specific ocular physiology characteristic, namely the macular pigment (MP) in the retina ...

Behind electrochromic glazing: Assessing user's perception of glare from the sun in a controlled environment

Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain

The adaptable transmittance of electrochromic glazing allows to control the solar radiation entering buildings, yet the level of transmittance needed to protect from glare is still an unanswered question. To bridge this gap, this study evaluates the level ...
