Abstract

This thesis explores the efficacy of polarized filters in reducing indoor glare while maintaining a high degree of light quality when compared to traditional window treatments. The results, which were acquired using experimental setups as well as manual UGR calculations, show that while polarized filters are helpful in reducing glare, other conventional treatments often perform better overall.
