    This study analyzed discomfort glare using luminance measurements and observer vision orientation. The findings help optimize lighting environments by minimizing glare and validating discomfort indices.

    Area of Science:

    • Lighting engineering
    • Human factors engineering
    • Visual perception

    Background:

    • Discomfort glare significantly impacts visual performance and well-being in various environments.
    • Existing methods for assessing glare often lack consideration for observer orientation and glare source limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate variations in discomfort glare indices based on observer line-of-vision orientation and glare source luminance.
    • To develop a method for determining optimal observer orientation in lighted environments.
    • To assess the reliability of calculated discomfort glare indices.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a stereoluminancemeter to measure luminance distribution.
    • Analyzed the influence of observer's line-of-vision orientation.
