Menozzi, M. and Krueger, H. (1989): Measurement of Reflections of Displays. In: Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction 1989. pp. 688-692.

“The negative influence glare, respectively reflections, has on character reading on VDU's is well known. In most cases glare changes the adaptation level of the eye. Therefore the characters on the screen are more difficult to be read. Because of their sharp images the reflections may lead to an irritation of the accommodation of the eye. They force the VDU user to accommodate his or her eye to the distance of the target reflected in the display. As the viewing distance of the reflected target does not correspond to the viewing distance to the screen the characters on the screen are therefore seen as blurred. Beside the described negative effects of glare and reflections it has to be mentioned that any overlay of superfluous light on the screen diminishes the contrast of the characters and therefore reduces their legibility. This becomes worse as the details which have to be recognized on the screen get smaller. Considering the above mentioned facts it is clear that reflections on the screen have to be eliminated. The best method is to arrange screen and illumination in a way that no glare or reflections are produced at all. Mostly this cannot be realized. Therefore antiglare devices have to be installed additionally on the surface of the screen. As there are various devices available which work on different physical principles, the question arises which is the antiglare device which best reduces reflections and how the efficiency of different devices can be compared to each other? In this paper we propose a method for ranking different antiglare devices which correlates with subjective ratings. The main aim of the presented study was to find an easy to use method for assessing the quality of antiglare devices.”
