Discomfort glare, light scatter, and scene structure
… negative effects of light in the work place was glare. <br></br><br></br> Holladay (Holladay, (1926)) attributed the negative effects of glare to impairment of vision caused by light scatter. Stiles (Stiles, (1929)) refuted Holladay's case by arguing that only a small proportion of the reduction …

A study of mechanisms for discomfort glare
… a dark background, can generate a form of discomfort, which is often described as ‘discomfort glare’. The mechanisms for discomfort glare remain poorly understood, even after 50 years of multidisciplinary research in this field. The aim of this investigation was to investigate a number of …

Evaluation of Discomfort Glare and Pavement Marking Material Visibility for Eleven Headlamp Configurations
… eleven specified) that minimized the amount of discomfort glare and maximized the visibility of three types of pavement marking materials used in the study. Two baseline conditions, halogen low beam (HLB) and high-intensity discharge (HID) were measured both individually and in combination with …

Trait-Based Individual Differences on Discomfort Glare Rating Responses and Related Visual Contrast Sensitivity
… differences (neuroticism and extraversion) and glare subjective responses as well as the actual contrast sensitivity when exposed to the same manipulated glare condition. In addition, the relationship between the glare subjective responses and actual contrast sensitivity was investigated. To …

Nighttime Driving Evaluation of Disability and Discomfort Glare from Various Headlamps under Low and High Light Adaptation Levels
… and safety may be compromised. The effects of glare produced by the headlamps of oncoming vehicles have become an interesting problem to many lighting researchers. Depending upon the opposing lighting design (beam distribution and intensity) and the lighting conditions inside the vehicle, …

The assessment of light sources
Discomfort glare from normal sources has been thoroughly researched over the last five decades and agreement has been reached by the CIE to express it by the Unified Glare Rating (UGR) formula: UGR = 8 log₁₀g where: g = (0.785/Eᵢ)Σ(L²ω/p²) (see Glossary) Hardly any research, however, has been done …

The use of visual comfort metrics in the design of daylit spaces
… reflections from daylight can cause visual discomfort or the inability to perform tasks. Typically, the total amount of luminous flux incident upon a surface per unit area - illuminance - present is used to predict visual discomfort due to questions about the benefit and validity of …
