“…Thus, during the design process, many architects have tried to support richer visitor experiences by enhancing the effectiveness of display methods. According to Cannon-Brookes, 20 daylight is capable of changing the quality of our lives, for better or for worse. He reports that inside a gallery, daylight combines the twin virtues of diffusion and orientation of historical appropriateness and colour renderings, to which all other sources are compared.…”

This study evaluates daylight performance in an art museum in _ Istanbul, Turkey to analyse the effects of daylight design features on visitors' satisfaction in art museums. The study is based on users' data obtained through a survey and daylight simulation achieved by Autodesk 3D's Max 2014. A three-part questionnaire was conducted with 100 participants in overcast-and clear-sky conditions to rate visitors' satisfaction with the museum and their importance level of daylight design issues in museums. The museum's daylight illuminance data were measured on a scaled model by a computer simulation program. The statistical results and simulation renderings show that daylight design is a multiparameter task. There are statistically significant correlations between visual comfort and visitor satisfaction. The study finds two essential daylight considerations for a practical guide to promote healthy and effective daylight use in museums: (i) that certain design aspects in a museum, such as location, window size and window distance from partitions or displays, are important regardless of weather conditions and that (ii) glare prevention from openings such as windows and skylights is also a crucial aspect in visual comfort.

Accurate and quantifiable measurement of light is essential in creating desired outcomes in practical day to day applications as well as unique applications such as Traffic lighting system, Poultry Industry, Gardening, Museum lighting system, at emergency exits etc. Hence, Light measurement and analysis is an important step in ensuring efficiency and safety. Many of the industries are burdened with limited number of resources and real shortage of experts on their fields; real time remote monitoring presents an effective solution that minimizes their efforts and expenditures to achieve the desired results within time. This paper introduces real time remote Light intensity monitoring system using Raspberry Pi which enables the user to track the lighting system remotely. Raspberry pi is a low cost ARM powered Linux based computer which acts as a server, and it communicates with clients with LAN or external Wi-Fi module. The key feature of this system is light intensity being monitored instantaneously and data stored in the database for future use, and shown in the form of dynamic charts to the user according to the user requirement in a terminal device like Tablet or Smart Phone or any internet enabled device. This empowers experts to make right decisions at right time to get desired results.
