Direct and Indirect Glare

Glare significantly affects comfort, productivity, and well-being for building occupants. It occurs when excessive or uncontrolled light creates visual discomfort or reduces visibility, making it difficult to focus on tasks.

In workplaces, direct uncontrolled glare on computer screens or reflective glare off surfaces such as desks and workstations can hinder efficiency, while in educational settings, it can make whiteboards or digital displays difficult to read. In homes, excessive brightness can create discomfort, particularly in rooms with large windows.

Reducing Glare Through Sun-Tracking

Sun-tracking automation adjusts blinds dynamically based on the sun’s position throughout the day adjusting to the right height or angle to ensure glare control and comfort for occupants.

Vasatec assesses the solar path using your building’s geo-coordinates, façade orientation, and floor level to enable accurate, responsive programming of shading systems.
