LiQuID: Lighting Quality for Design

In this paper, we present LiQuID, a tool for seeing lighting quality in design.Photographs are useful vehicles for both describing and making assessments of architectural lighting systems.A significant barrier to using photographs during the design process relates to the sheer volume of renderings that needs to be analyzed.Although there have been efforts to produce novel visualization systems to manage large sets of photographs, this research aims to reduce the complexity by classifying data into representative prototypes.A hypothetical case study is discussed.
