Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed.

If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Comment: Be careful, some of this article sounds like an introduction for the software and not an encyclopedia article. ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 07:52, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

DIALux is a 3D graphics software for lighting design developed by DIAL GmbH[1] in Lüdenscheid. It is mainly used by lighting planners, consultants, architects, lighting technicians and electricians to plan, calculate and visualize light for indoor and outdoor areas. The software is freely available through the manufacturer's website and this video tutorial [2] offers a quick overview.
A survey by Linköping University on the use of lighting simulation tools in Sweden found that over 70% of respondents identified DIALux as their primary tool for lighting simulations.[3] Many lamp and luminaire manufacturers offer plug-ins that integrate the beam characteristics of their products into the DIALux platform. As a result, more than 2 million luminaires are currently available for planning.
DIALux includes features for photometric calculations and supports the planning and simulation of various environments, including rooms, multi-story buildings, pathways, parking lots, streets, and landscapes. It also offers functionality for daylight simulation, obtrusive light calculations, the lighting design for sports venues and emergency lighting planning according to the DIN EN 1838 standard. Recent versions also enable energy assessments based on DIN V 18599 and EN 15193 standards, which are required for energy performance certificates. 3D models created with DIALux can be rendered with the raytracer POV-Ray.
