DAYLIGHTING

Dynamic Daylighting

Of all my web-based apps, this is the first to come close to my original concept of a deeply interactive and playful tool that addresses all the complexities involved in a particular design and analysis process. This app investigates real-time dynamic daylight analysis within a simple rectangular room based on detailed sky distributions. The room size, windows, external shading devices and work plane height can all be interactively manipulated with the internal daylight distribution updating in real time. You can add any number of windows, external shading devices or site obstructions, and experiment with different surface reflectances and window transmittances.
