Design of new daylight simulators on architectural scale models

To enable students to evaluate the impact of light on the scale models of their architectural projects, two physical simulation systems have been built: a mirror box and a sun and sky simulator. Both devices integrate LED-based light sources. We have integrated several models for the computation of...

Description
Summary:To enable students to evaluate the impact of light on the scale models of their architectural projects, two physical simulation systems have been built: a mirror box and a sun and sky simulator. Both devices integrate LED-based light sources. We have integrated several models for the computation of the sky image: luminance models and colour appearance models. The integration of the recent and evolving LED technologies explains how our simulators are innovative.
