The objective of the study was to investigate the user perception of solar shading systems regarding glare by using laboratory tests with subjects, to compare the results with existing glare rating equations and to derive a new glare prediction model. The laboratory tests were conducted at the Danish Building Research Institute and at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems. At each site, the study was performed in two identical experimental rooms, one with subjects, and the other with measuring equipment. A total of 105 subjects were exposed to three different window arrangements typical for today's design of windows in office buildings. To ensure variations in potential glare situations, three different solar shading devices were included, in order to assess existing glare models and to provide a reliable database for the development of a new glare prediction model - daylight glare probability DGP
