Project Highlights
- Enhancement of Hormonal Response Understanding:
Developing innovative methods to measure hormonal responses in a lab setting simulating realistic workplace conditions. - Advancement of Light and Human Response Detection Techniques:
Implementing precise measurements of varying lighting conditions using a combination of standard equipment and wearable sensors.
- Creation of a Robust Predictive Model for Human Responses:
Using machine learning techniques to create a model that accurately forecasts non-image-forming responses based on lighting conditions.
- Proposition of Non-Image Forming Lighting Effects Standardisation in BIM:
Assisting in interoperability and data exchange within BIM for lighting conditions evaluations.
- International Group of Interdisciplinary Researchers:
Involving a team of top international researchers ensuring a multidisciplinary approach to the research questions, involving aspects of building physics, especially lighting in buildings, energy-efficient building design, decarbonatization, measured building occupants’ responses, advanced data analysis based on machine learning techniques, development of hormonal detection methods and sampling optimisation in medicine, with the overarching goal of understanding and optimising the impact of lighting on human hormonal responses in indoor built environments.
- Comprehensive pathways to impact, including exploitation activities:
Preparing four original scientific articles, doctoral summer school, knowledge transfer to industry, brief scientific stay, engaging with policymakers and non-profits CIE and buildingSMART, open data initiative participation, six international conferences contributions, and integrating with social media platform LinkedIn are just some of the fifty different actions we plan to execute to comprehensively address pathways to impact of this research project’s findings.
