Summary
This paper discusses the physiological effects of daylight dynamics in office buildings and how they can be simulated to contribute to the design process and future smart building systems.
Categories
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses how daylight dynamics can be simulated and used in the design process of office buildings to contribute to both physiological and visual effects on humans.
Well-being: The paper suggests that a holistic approach to daylight dynamics in our built environment can have beneficial outcomes for human well-being, both physiologically and visually.
Alertness and performance: The paper discusses how the physiological effects of light, measured as melanopic EDI (Melanopic Equivalent Daylight Illuminance), can contribute to alertness and performance in office environments.
