Eye protection - lighting

Image
Human eyes develop and grow under natural light. For people, the best light source is scattered natural light. The goal of all "eye protection lights" is to make the lights emit light as close as possible to the characteristics of natural light. In life, the light emitted by most artificial light sources is not stable but flickers rapidly. The common incandescent lamp strobe is generally 50 Hz, that is, the light will flicker 50 times per second. With every flicker, our pupils will shrink and expand once, which will virtually increase the burden of using our eyes, and our eyes will feel tired. The main factors to consider when buying a lamp: 1. Illumination. At least above 300Lux, the greater the luminous flux, the greater the illuminance in the same distance test. 2. Stroboscopic , that is, the frequency of light flashing. If the light flashes badly, you can take a photo or video with the camera of your phone, and you will find that there will be flashes of light on your ca

Which one is better? Comparison of LED and energy-saving lamps

Image
Since 2009, the sale of light bulbs has been banned. The main reason is the low energy efficiency and thus the lack of environmental protection. Energy-saving lamps and LEDs have successfully established themselves as substitutes. These lamps differ not only in terms of technology but also in terms of service life and energy efficiency. Energy-saving lamp technology The lamp body of the energy-saving lamp is composed of glass or ceramic tubes. The glass bulb contains a gas mixture and two electrodes, between which a gas discharge occurs. Once the current is turned on, the electrode will flow from the cathode to the anode. In the gas mixture, the electrode hits mercury atoms and the energy is released in the form of ultraviolet rays. Tubes are usually coated with fluorescent materials, once the ultraviolet rays hit its surface, they will convert the ultraviolet rays into visible, pleasant white light. LED light technology LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology is not based on a gas disch

How does light affect sleep?

Image
Light can affect sleep, we must first start with melatonin. The pineal gland of the human brain secretes a hormone called melatonin, and this hormone will guide us to fall asleep and improve the quality of sleep. Therefore, melatonin is an important factor affecting our sleep. The secretion of melatonin has a circadian rhythm. After night falls, the light stimulation weakens, and the enzyme activity of the pineal gland to synthesize melatonin increases. The secretion level of melatonin in the body also increases accordingly, reaching a peak at 3 a.m. The level of melatonin at night directly affects the quality of sleep. With age, the pineal gland shrinks until it becomes calcified, causing the rhythm of the biological clock to weaken or disappear, especially after the age of 35, the body's melatonin secretion decreases significantly. How does light affect melatonin secretion? There is a very small cell in our retina called non-imaging visual cells (ipRGC). As the name suggests, thi

Bright and shadowless: suitable for children's room light

Image
From the dressing room to the playroom to the youth room: the demand for children's rooms is growing as rapidly as its residents. What does this mean for light? In retrospect, there are only a few rooms that are as emotionally important as children's rooms: your first room, a place of retreat where you can have many memories. Over the years, only a few rooms have changed so frequently and so strongly: among babies and toddlers, parents still use this room. Later, this dressing room became a bedroom and then a game room, where people at school study and the teenager room is a place for gathering with friends and various leisure activities. The room develops with the children and acquires new tasks and functions. But how should you consider this when planning suitable lighting for a children's room? Children's rooms even need light "When the child is a child, the taste changes faster. Things that are still great today will become stupid tomorrow." This is anoth

Ceiling lights are the focal point of lighting in many rooms. But what if structural changes are not possible or not wanted here? Table lamps and their bigger siblings, the floor lamps, are not only indispensable for a balanced lighting concept, but they also make a design statement. We have collected a few special recommendations for you here. Which role floor lamps and table lamps should play in lighting planning is less a question of "if" and more a question of "how" .

The evolutionary history of light

Image
Light is a magical thing. It appears around us every day and illuminates us, but sometimes it makes people inaccessible and unpredictable, but this does not prevent people from exploring them. Human beings have been on the road of exploring the light. Gradually, people learned to use some methods to obtain light, so the lamp appeared. Its existence saved us from being corroded by the night, lighted the way forward for us, and made the night less horrible. In the world of light and shadow, after continuous exploration and innovation by human beings, lights have gradually become a perfect combination of light and art. Lighting has experienced the development process from fire, oil to electricity, and the same lighting methods have also undergone countless changes. In the beginning, torches were used to ignite lighting using animal fats, and then to lighting tools that used kerosene for industrial products, and finally to the peak of human development history, using electricity to create

The artistic charm of lighting

Image
Lighting is a fleeting art. Lighting is to create an environment more typically without violating the real-life of life, so that it meets the requirements of shooting and the shaping of the environment, creating a sense of environmental atmosphere, and expressing the appeal of this atmosphere through the camera lens. Lighting is an art The difference between the scene in front of the camera and the image displayed on the screen must be correctly estimated. This deliberate change requires imaginative foresight and considerable experience. Lighting designers need to patiently use one lamp after another to create the lighting scene effect, showing a sense of atmosphere combined with light and shadow on the screen, thereby controlling our attention and inspiring our emotions. Lighting is also a form of artistic creation. The lamp is like a paintbrush in the hands of a painter and a knife in the hands of a sculptor. The lighting engineer can use the lamps in his hands to The artistic charm

Image
In modern home decoration, people often pay more attention to lighting effects, beauty, and energy saving in the selection of lamps, but do not care about the lighting methods and the health problems caused by lamps. How important is the impact of lighting on health?  Whether the lighting at home is used well or not, the core is a problem of "light health". Speaking of "light health", first of all, it refers to the lighting needs to meet the functional requirements of the place, which is the question of whether it is bright or not beautiful; Then, it refers to meeting people's psychological requirements, such as the influence of color temperature and brightness on people's emotions, and whether the light and shadow of the lamp are comfortable.
