Solution for the development of circadian-modulated LED systems
Plessey announced that it will provide CIRCADIAN ZircLight with an LED package solution for the development of circadian-modulated, smart LED lighting systems and lamps. Based near Boston, Massachusetts, USA, CIRCADIAN ZircLight's lighting division is developing high quality, white light fixtures and backlighting which control bioactive light spectral wavelengths to maximize productivity during the day and prevent the harmful effects of light exposure at night.
The technological developments of CIRCADIAN ZircLight build upon a growing body of research showing that exposure to light at night causes a disruption of brain neuroendocrine systems, including melatonin and cortisol rhythms. This research suggests that the myriad of health issues related to shift workers may be due to the night time light exposure during night shifts.
Harish Rao, VP Lighting Products, CIRCADIAN ZircLight's, said, 'We are developing a comprehensive set of smart, human-centric LED product solutions to provide the right light for human health, safety and productivity across the 24 hour day without changing colour temperature or dimming the lights. By working with partners such as Plessey, who are leaders in LED lighting and light sensors and controls, we are bringing a healthy revolution to how light is used during day and night.
The first range of the ZircLight products with Plessey's spectrum specific LEDs will be released in 2016.
