Hi there, I’m looking for a tool that will both render and measure the lighting levels in a room based on daylight reflecting off the surfaces outside (like overhangs, shading devices and light shelves) and inside (walls, floor, ceiling and objects). Most of the tools I can find either will render realistic images but not give you the lighting levels but give you lighting levels but do not really take into account reflections off surfaces. Is there such a tool, or am I not using the apps properly?
Hi, @Mackie Welcome back to Ladybug user group.
Honeybee with Radiance can easily render the image and calculate the indoor daylight level.
Here is a demo:
