Evaluation of overheating protection with sun-shading systems
S.59-74Sun-shading systems have to provide thermal and visual comfort both reliably and economically. At the same time, they should prevent unwanted solar gains in summer and permit high solar gains in winter.

Development of the Automated Shading Device: Its Effects on the Indoor Thermal Environments
The prototype of automated shading devices to prevent the excessive effects of solar radiation entering the indoor space has been developed. It worked based on the sun-path data and used Arduino to control the movement. The performance had been tested to
