Daylight Harvesting: Introducing ‘Daylight Autonomy’

Article from a  Lutron engineer, published by NEMA:

Figure 2: Solar-adaptive shading, like Lutron Hyperion systems with window sensors, adjusts shades throughout the day based on the position of the sun, and environmental conditions.

From the article:

The concept of Daylight Autonomy is designing a space such that it maximizes the amount of useful daylight, thereby minimizing the need for electric light. The final product has to embrace daylight while minimizing or eliminating glare, and maximize energy savings by reducing the use of electric light.
