Annual Daylight Performance, Glare, and Privacy-Curtain Trade-Offs in Single and Shared Oncology Patient Rooms: A Climate-Based Simulation Study

Architecture
Daylight is a key component of evidence-based healthcare design, yet strategies that increase daylight may also introduce glare and interact with privacy measures used in shared hospital rooms.

A systematic color correction pipeline for controlled‐environment imaging

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
ABSTRACT We present a stepwise color correction (CC) pipeline for controlled imaging environments. The workflow integrates flat‐field correction (FFC), gamma correction, and white‐balance correction, followed by a color‐mapping (CM) stage using machine‐learning regression—linear, partial least squares, and neural networks (NNs)—to deliver reliable CC ...

Daylight glare in offices

, 2011
The influence of discomfort glare is often underestimated in daylighting design and in the use of buildings. Many façade solutions are intended to increase the amount of daylight penetrating the room and creating a glare free environment at the same time.

Comparing Drone and Vessel‐Based Imaging to Quantify Epibiont Coverage on Humpback Whales

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cetacean epibionts offer noninvasive insights into host health, physiology, and spatial ecology, yet quantitative assessments in wild populations remain scarce. Although vessel‐based observations may be limited by field of view and analyst input, unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAVs; drones) are increasingly used to monitor cetacean health indices,

Sky‐Directional Radiative Cooling Meta‐Films for Daylighting Windows

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 76, 21 September 2026.
A geometry‐mediated microprism meta‐film enables transparent, sky‐directional radiative cooling for daylighting windows. By decoupling control of visible transmittance from mid‐infrared emissivity, ground‐emitted heat absorption is suppressed while skyward heat dissipation is enhanced.

Computational Evaluation of a Biomimetic Kinetic Façade Inspired by the Venus Flytrap for Daylight and Glare Performance

Buildings
Centralized daylight control has been extensively studied for its ability to optimize useful daylight while mitigating glare in targeted areas. However, this approach lacks a comprehensive visual comfort framework, as it does not simultaneously address ...
