The Key Research Points of International Daylighting
WU Wei
Abstract：Since daylighting is a declared feature of most sustainable green buildings, it is today a topic of growing interest to researchers, designers and practitioners. This paper presents a review of daylighting research in recently years, offering an international overview of many current developments in the field. Three major developments are contributing to this recent surge in interest: recent discoveries of non-visible effects of day light, a wide research interesting on how daylighting influences or can be used to influence the occupants of an environment, and a renewed interest in better daylight simulation tools and performance metrics. Also, the paper identifies gaps in current knowledge and points out main directions of future research.
