Daylight in buildings

Daylight should be a significant source of illumination for all spaces with daylight opening(s). Daylight is strongly favoured by building occupants as a way to adequately illuminate the indoor surfaces, and to save energy for electrical lighting. Daylight ...

Novel illumination strategy for lidar enabled by update in the laser product standards

Federico Matteini, Lucio Carrara

In this article, the authors propose a novel illumination strategy for light detection and ranging (lidar) systems emitting in the retinal hazard region (400 m

High power ultraviolet LED illumination systems: coherence properties and applications in photolithography

Johana Bernasconi

Mask-aligner photolithography is a technology used to replicate patterns from a mask to a photosensitive substrate. It is widely used in the fabrication of MEMS and micro-optical components, and for other applications with dimensions in the micrometer rang ...

EPFL Smart Glass Field Study

Marilyne Andersen, Forrest Simon Webler, Victoria Eugenia Soto Magán

The objectives of this study are to evaluate (1) direct non-visual effects of red-impoverished daylight on circadian resetting and alertness and (2) the daily light-exposure pattern on indirect–circadian–effects. The novelty of this study is that it will b ...

A CMOS SPAD Imager with Collision Detection and 128 Dynamically Reallocating TDCs for Single-Photon Counting and 3D Time-of-Flight Imaging

Edoardo Charbon, Ivan Michel Antolovic, Chunmin Zhang, Scott Anthony Lindner, Martin Wolf

Per-pixel time-to-digital converter (TDC) architectures have been exploited by single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) sensors to achieve high photon throughput, but at the expense of fill factor, pixel pitch and readout efficiency. In contrast, TDC sharing a ...

Initiatives to Report and Reduce Embodied Carbon in North American Buildings

Catherine Elvire L. De Wolf

Embodied carbon emissions during material extraction, production, transportation, building construction, and demolition are irreversible. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states that the building sector must be zero carbon by 2050. This ...

Influence of façade details on early design decisions regarding daylight performance of neighborhoods

Marilyne Andersen, Luisa Pastore, Minu Agarwal

Neighborhood form and building facade design are key drivers of indoor daylight performance. Architectural design at the neighborhood scale starts with massing scheme proposals and other design specifications including façade design are typically enriched ...

Perceived interest and heart rate response to façade and daylight patterns in Virtual Reality

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo, Kynthia Chamilothori, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues

This contribution introduces an experimental study aiming to provide concrete evidence on how façade and daylight pattern geometry can affect the emotional responses triggered by a space. The study was conducted in Virtual Reality (VR) where participants w ...

Integrated Daylighting and Artificial Lighting Control based on High Dynamic Range Vision Sensors

Ali Motamed

One fifth of the electricity consumption of Swiss buildings is due to electric lighting. Integrated control of sun shading and artificial lighting can mitigate this demand while maintaining user comfort. However, the drawback of existing building control a ...

Discomfort Glare from Daylighting: Influence of Culture on Discomfort Glare Perception

Jan Wienold, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Magali Bodart

In a context where lighting standards are developed based on glare indices, no study has ever investigated that these indices could be used analogously for subjects having different cultures and living in different climates. The wide variability existing b ...
