DISCOMFORT GLARE INDEXES - A COMPARATIVE-STUDY

From the luminance distribution measured with a stereoluminancemeter w e have studied the variation in the principal indices of discomfort gl are while considering the orientation of the line of vision of the obs erver and the limiting luminance of the glare source. This method prov ides the ideal orientation for the observer in a lighted environment, minimizes the detrimental effects of glare, and determines the reliabi lity of the indices calculated for discomfort glare.
