Abstract

The goal of this paper is to analyze the daylight perception by the human eye and their adaptation to illumination. In order to do that we compute the spectral power distributions of the daylight, in function of these the color changes across the daylight. We simulate the perception of the daylight: in the sunset sky, the noon sunlight, the daylight etc. When the level of illumination is too high the iris makes prompt, momentary adjustments to changes in light intensity within the same light environment. Also, as measure of protection, the eye can be masked by windows or sun glasses.
