USER EVALUATIONS OF CONTRAST-DOMINANT DISCOMFORT GLARE IN DIM DAYLIT SCENARIOS: PRELIMINARY FINDINGS

open access: yesProceedings of the Conference CIE 2021, 2021
Discomfort glare metrics typically consider at least one of the two effects of discomfort glare - saturation and contrast - in their equation. The former occurs when there is an excessively bright glare source in the field of view, while the latter ...

A Critical Literature Review of Spatio-temporal Simulation Methods for Daylight Glare Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Design and Applied Research in Innovative Engineering of the Built Environment, 2019
A well daylighted space can provide a highly satisfying visual environment. However, if that environment causes us visual discomfort, it can become such a nuisance that we, sometimes literally, turn our backs on this powerful connection to the outside ...

Discomfort Glare from a Cyclic Source in Outdoor Lighting Conditions

open access: yesLEUKOS The Journal of the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America, 2021
Many models of discomfort glare have been proposed for outdoor lighting applications. Most of them were built from data collected in the laboratory in static situations, with motionless light sources, which main characteristics (luminance, size and ...

Pattern-Related Visual Stress, Chromaticity, and Accommodation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
PURPOSE. To investigate the impact of colored overlays on the accommodative response of individuals, with and without pattern- related visual stress (PRVS), a condition in which individuals manifest symptoms of perceptual distortion and discomfort when ...

The Relationship between Solid Angle, Eccentric Angle, and Luminance of Glare Source Under the BCD Condition to Understand the Effect of Visual Characteristics on Discomfort Glare

open access: yesJournal of Science and Technology in Lighting, 2021
Unified glare rating (UGR), which is a general discomfort-glare index, targets design objects such as artificial lighting. Light-source size, position of gaze, etc. are limited to the specific range assumed in the process of developing UGR.

Temporal variables and personal factors in glare sensation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Previous laboratory experiments have provided evidence of an effect of time of day on glare sensation. During the tests, temporal variables and personal factors were also measured to analyse their influence on levels of visual discomfort as the day ...

Assessment of Glare Caused by High Consumption Cars Headlights in Iran

open access: yesMuhandisī-i bihdāsht-i ḥirfah/ī, 2021
Background and Objective: The number of road accidents and casualties is considerably high in Iran. In addition, car headlights, especially on two-way roads, cause glare in the eyes of oncoming drivers.

Visual stress, its treatment with spectral filters, and its relationship to visually induced motion sickness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We review the concept of visual stress and its relation to neurological disease. Visual stress can occur from the observation of images with unnatural spatial structure and an excess of contrast energy at spatial frequencies to which the visual system is
