The objective and subjective factors influencing human-centric lighting design and their effect on the user of the lighting system are analysed with the aim of developing a user preference model. It is discussed how to apply this user preference model in the Internet of Things network structure of luminaires in order to obtain an ‘Internet of Luminaires’ for good user acceptance. The method of a visual experiment intended to elucidate these concepts and contribute to the user preference model is described. In the experiment, subjects assessed scene brightness, visual clarity, colour preference and scene preference in a real room. Modelling equations of these attributes will be shown and discussed in Part 2 of this work.
