  2. Skylight - Wikipedia

    The dome shape allows for shedding of water and burning embers. Plastics used in skylights are UV stabilized and may feature other advances to improve thermal properties. Lack of accepted standards for measuring light transmittance is a disadvantage for comparing and choosing skylights with plastic glazing.

    The artificial sky is a daylight simulation device that replicates the light coming from the sky dome. An architectural scale model or 1:1 full-scaled aircraft is placed under an artificial sky to predict daylight penetration within buildings or aircraft that subjects to different situations, complex geometries, or heavily obstructed windows.

    Brightly coloured plastic panels containing translucent "windows" could then be snapped onto the outer girders to create a curtain wall. Square navy-blue roof panels—some with translucent skylight domes molded into them—were laid on the topmost beams to complete the structure.

    Total external reflection, hollow light tube Total internal reflection, block of acrylic. Light tubes (also known as solar pipes, tubular skylights or sun tunnels [1]) are structures that transmit or distribute natural or artificial light for the purpose of illumination and are examples of optical waveguides.

  6. Poly(methyl methacrylate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(methyl_methacrylate)

    Laser cut acrylic panels have been used to redirect sunlight into a light pipe or tubular skylight and, from there, to spread it into a room. [33] Their developers Veronica Garcia Hansen, Ken Yeang , and Ian Edmonds were awarded the Far East Economic Review Innovation Award in bronze for this technology in 2003.

  7. Xanadu Houses - Wikipedia

    Once the second dome was completed and the balloon form removed, the two rooms were joined by wire mesh which was also sprayed with foam to form a connecting gallery or hall. This process was repeated until the house was complete. Window, skylight, and door openings were cut and the frames foamed into place.
