The VisualSense project is designed to bring together stakeholders, users, and citizens worldwide to share perspectives and reactions to design concepts — through images, videos, and graphic content — in an engaging, accessible, and even enjoyable way.
Each proposal is fully documented with key data on environmental impact, energy consumption, and capital and operating costs, ensuring that feedback is grounded in both emotion and fact. The approach has been carefully developed and tested in research laboratories in Europe, combining scientific rigor with user-friendly interaction.
VisualSense is a user-friendly platform that transforms visual content into actionable knowledge.It enables statistical analysis and correlation studies by combining design options with scientific, technical, and contextual data embedded in each image or scene.
In educational settings, VisualSense is a powerful teaching tool. It allows students and professionals to engage with real-world design challenges, demonstrate their understanding of visual environments, identify the most effective solutions, and even propose their own ideas — making learning both interactive and practical.
To become the go-to platform for professionals who need to capture and analyze feedback from clients, partners, or citizens when evaluating design or planning options. It is especially valuable in decision-making contexts that require balancing subjective perceptions with technical, financial, and environmental performance criteria — turning complex trade-offs into clear, data-driven insights.
VisualSense was born from research labs in France and Denmark to explore the acceptability of energy-efficient solutions in building design and urban environments, with a particular focus on lighting and space management.
The project brings together an international team of experts in building energy systems, lighting design, environmental performance, occupant well-being, architecture, and psychometrics. This interdisciplinary approach ensures that both human and technical factors are fully integrated into the platform.
Our developers have collaborated closely on building the platform’s data architecture, real-time processing engine, and interactive user interface. More recently, we’ve integrated Artificial Intelligence to enhance session performance, scale data processing, and deliver deeper, faster insights.
