How to calculate the projection of a sunshade?

Consider these as South-facing for calculations and sunshade projection from the building, but apply a factor based on the equation: Example: calculated projection for direct South was 52″ (SP = 52) in our original example. Direct Southeast or Southwest will be 45° from South, so A = 45. SEP = 52 * cos (45) = 36.75″.

Can you use sunshades on the north side of a building?

Otherwise, virtually no energy benefit can be gained from shading the North side of a building (again, we are referring to a location in the Northern Hemisphere). Based on the solar altitude and azimuth and orientation of your building, shading methods will vary.

What does collimated image on HUD combiner mean?

Collimated images on the HUD combiner are perceived as existing at or near optical infinity. This means that the pilot’s eyes do not need to refocus to view the outside world and the HUD display…the image appears to be “out there”, overlaying the outside world.

When is the best time to put a sunshade on a window?

The intersection of the lines is the optimal point for the outermost tip of the sunshade. This configuration will allow full sun to enter the window during January (the coldest month) and allow little or no sun to enter the window from April 15 through Sept 1 (the warmest months).

How does HUD-Sygic head up display work?

Sygic came up with a solution that eliminates the need for a separate head-up device by implementing a Head-up Display into its navigation apps. The feature is directly a part of the application so that the standard interface of the app can be switched to a design that can be projected and seen on the windshield.
