Abstract
To allow more daylighting and protect against direct solar radiation, the system may include a window shading system that impacts an area (or area of interest). The system may adjust different window shades in different ways and for different periods of time to protect against a direct solar radiation onto an area of interest. The system may provide targeted shadows onto the area of interest. The system may also analyze or predict angles of solar rays that comprise the direct solar radiation and determine an impact of the solar rays on the area of interest, wherein the adjusting of window shades is based on the determining.
Claims18
A method, comprising:
- adjusting, by an automated control system, a first window shade for a first period of time to protect against a direct solar radiation onto an area of interest;
- adjusting, by an automated control system, a second window shade for a second period of time to protect against the direct solar radiation onto the area of interest;
- and
- adjusting, by an automated control system, a third window shade for a third period of time to protect against the direct solar radiation onto the area of interest.
