Description

He is an expert in rational use of energy in lighting systems, the use of daylight in buildings and development of innovative photosensors. In the context of his PhD research (Development of a system of automatic adjustment of artificial lighting for the optimized exploitation of daylight) he developed a new type of photosensor that alters its field of view regarding its position on the ceiling in order to have greater energy savings, optical comfort and unerring function of the photosensor. Several research projects have implemented by the researcher, namely a total number of 32. During the total number of the projects and his PhD thesis were 35 publications, 5 in scientific journals with high impact factor, 22 in international conferences, 3 in national conferences and 5 in technical press. The 5 publications, from the scientific journals, have cited 177 times.
