摘要: An electrochromic device is provided. The device includes a first transparent substrate and a second transparent substrate and a first electrically conductive layer and a second electrically conductive layer. A first bus bar is in contact with the first electrically conductive layer and a second bus bar in contact with the second electrically conductive layer. The first and second electrically conductive layers are patterned with sets of scribed lines substantially parallel to the corresponding bus bar, wherein the sets of scribed lines are made up of a series of collinear segments, which are gaps in the electrically conductive layer, wherein the length of the collinear segments, the period, the valve width and the offset between segments in adjacent scribed lines determines the resistance to the flow of electrons traversing a set of scribed lines in the direction substantially perpendicular to the corresponding bus bar.

摘要: Disclosed is a system, method, and computer program product that employs high dynamic range (HDR) image processing and manipulation algorithms for capturing and measuring real-time sky conditions for processing into control input signals to a building's automated fenestration (AF) system, daylight harvesting (DH) system and HVAC system. The photometer comprises a color camera and a fitted fish-eye lens to capture 360-degree, hemispherical, low dynamic range (LDR) color images of the sky. Both camera and lens are housed in a sealed enclosure protecting them from environmental elements and conditions. In some embodiments the camera and processes are controlled and implemented by a back-end computer.

摘要: A sky sensor device for measuring direct normal illuminance (DNE) value is described. One method controls a camera sensor to capture a series of exposure-bracketed images having a first dynamic range and generate an image from the series of exposure-bracketed images, the image having a second dynamic range higher than the first dynamic range. The method controls an illuminance sensor to measure a global illuminance value. The method determines a global horizontal diffuse value based on at least the image. The method determines a direct normal illuminance (DNE) value using the global illuminance value and the global horizontal diffuse value.

摘要: A method includes identifying a plurality of images corresponding to sky conditions and isolating cloud pixels from sky pixels in each of the plurality of images. Responsive to determining percentage of cloud pixels in one or more of the plurality of images meets a threshold value, the method further includes determining predicted cloud movement relative to sun position. The method further includes causing a tint level of an electrochromic device to be controlled based on the predicted cloud movement relative to the sun position.

摘要: A method includes receiving first dimensions of an electrochromic device and second dimensions of one or more obstructions of the electrochromic device. The method further includes generating, based on the first dimensions and the second dimensions, an obstruction map that indicates at least one of an obstructed portion or an unobstructed portion of the electrochromic device. The method further includes determining, based the obstruction map, a first desired tinting state of the electrochromic device. The method further includes causing a current tinting state of the electrochromic device to correspond to the first desired tinting state.

摘要: A method includes receiving a three-dimensional (3D) model of environment relative to a first electrochromic device. The 3D model includes one or more objects and the first electrochromic device. The method further includes determining, based on the 3D model, reflections. Each of the reflections is from a corresponding surface of the one or more objects to the first electrochromic device for a corresponding sun position. The method further includes generating a reflection map based on the reflections. The method further includes determining a current sun position. The method further includes determining, based on the reflection map and the current sun position, a first desired tinting state of the first electrochromic device. The method further includes causing a current tinting state of the first electrochromic device to correspond to the first desired tinting state.
