DISCOMFORT GLARE FROM DAYLIGHTING: INFLUENCE OF CULTURE ON DISCOMFORT GLARE PERCEPETION
PROCEEDINGS OF THE CONFERENCE AT THE CIE MIDTERM MEETING 2017 23 – 25 OCTOBER 2017, JEJU, REPUBLIC OF KOREA, 2018 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 between individuals’ discomfort glare perceptions suggests, however, that some of the factors ...

, 2017 Nowadays, no current index can properly explain the high variability existing between individuals’ discomfort glare perception. The mechanism behind the discomfort glare phenomenon is not well understood as some of the factors influencing this phenomenon are still unknown.

Cortical hyperexcitability and sensitivity to discomfort glare [PDF]
Neuropsychologia, 2015 It is well established that there are two main aspects to glare, the visual impairment and the discomfort, known as disability and discomfort glare, respectively. In contrast to the case of disability glare we understand very little about the underlying mechanisms or physiology of discomfort glare. This study attempts to elucidate the neural mechanisms

, 2022 This study investigates the relation between static and dynamic discomfort glare, as experienced by drivers, in a laboratory experiment with a panel of 32 participants. It provides a model to estimate an overall glare level from successive static glare levels. This model integrates a temporal decay of the glare level memory.

Discomfort glare and time of day [PDF]
Lighting Research & Technology, 2014 There are strong reasons to suspect that glare sensation varies with the time of day. This study was designed to test whether such a relationship exists. Thirty subjects were exposed to an artificial light source four times of the day. The source luminance was progressively increased and subjects were required to give glare sensation votes ...

A study of mechanisms for discomfort glare [PDF]
, 2013 PURPOSE\ud The presence of a bright light source in the visual field can generate visual discomfort. Based on empirical observations we can predict to a reasonable degree of accuracy how uncomfortable a given lighting installation is likely to be; yet very little is known about the mechanism or physiological underpinnings that lead to visual discomfort.

Discomfort glare from daylight in classrooms
, 2022 Provision of daylight without the risk of discomfort glare is one of the aspects that determine the quality of the classroom environment. Although discomfort glare from daylight is under investigation for a long time, a knowledge gap concerning the ...

A study of mechanisms for discomfort glare
The presence of a bright light source in the visual field, particularly when viewed against a dark background, can generate a form of discomfort, which is often described as ‘discomfort glare’. The mechanisms for discomfort glare remain poorly understood, even after 50 years of multidisciplinary research in this field. The aim of this investigation was
