Proper light spectra and intensity can impact the pineal gland, melatonin production, and the circadian rhythm. Appropriate non-visual light exposure can enhance alertness in the morning and promote proper sleep patterns at night. However, providing quality daylight in the inner core of tall buildings in dense urban areas is challenging due to building layout and environmental factors, which limit the feasibility of natural light. To overcome this issue, designers have relied on electric lighting. In this study, an innovative daylight system, the Sunlight Projecting System (SPS), was designed and analyzed to project beam sunlight into the cores of office buildings in dense urban environments. The SPS prototype utilized a double-mirror (DMP) and Multi-piece mirror (MMP) system to guide and reflect daylight onto interior ceilings. The study analyzed the efficacy of the prototype in providing sufficient visual and non-visual daylight to stimulate alertness without causing glare.This research also developed innovative methods for simulating reflective materials including Photon mapping and Raytracing using computer-aided modeling and daylight simulation engines. The results showed that the SPS prototypes can substantially improve the quality of daylight in tall building core spaces in dense urban areas, providing occupants with visual and non-visual daylight availability up to 100% of the time during conventional working hours (8AM-4PM) while reducing glare. These designed systems promote healthy daylighting conditions for occupants and mitigate daylight deprivation in tall building environments similar to dense urban areas.
