Adaptable Daylight Systems and Benefits
An adaptable daylighting system controls the entrance of natural light, direct sunlight or diffuse skylight into a building. Primarily for an office building, daylight helps not only to decrease the amount of load in artificial lighting but also helps in creating a productive environment for building occupants.
