Are you also bathed in artificial light when you read this article? For most people, artificial lighting is our most familiar "friend". However, if we are often exposed to artificial lighting, especially when the light is still bright at night, our circadian rhythm is easily disturbed, which in turn affects our emotions and behaviors.
The journal Nature Mental Health once published a study on the effects of light exposure on mental health. The study found that too bright light at night increases the risk of anxiety, depression, or other mental illnesses.Nature Mental Health (2023) DOI: 10.1038/s44220-023-00135-8
This discovery has sounded the alarm for us, reminding us to be more cautious about the light environment and avoid letting light become an invisible "killer" of emotions. In order to create a healthier lighting environment and help people balance their circadian rhythms, a series of innovative technologies have emerged, among which Warm-dim and Tunable White dimming technologies are particularly eye-catching.
Warm-dim
Color temperature gets warmer as lights dim
Warm-dim changes the brightness and color temperature of LED lamp beads by adjusting the current. When the current is large, the light emitted by the LED lamp beads is brighter and the color temperature is cooler; when the current is small, the light emitted by the LED lamp beads is lower and the color temperature is warmer.
Tunable White
The color temperature changes while the brightness remains unchanged
Tunable White is a dimming technology that allows lamps to flexibly emit light ranging from warm white to cool white. It relies on two types of LED light sources configured inside the lamp: one type is lamp beads with a lower color temperature (2650K-3000K), which presents a warmer tone; the other type is lamp beads with a higher color temperature (5000K-6000K), which presents a cooler tone. Tunable White changes the brightness of the lamp and adjusts its color temperature by regulating the flow of current in each group of lamp beads, achieving tunable white light.
Refreshing white light helps us focus and stay awake, while warm light creates an intimate and soothing environment. It can be seen that Warm-dim and Tunable White dimming technologies are the key to creating a comfortable lighting atmosphere. With the booming development of the lighting industry, major lighting manufacturers have entered the field of Warm-dim and Tunable White dimming technologies. These two innovative technologies have gradually evolved into important media for regulating emotions and optimizing the rhythm of life.So for what scenarios do Warm-dim and Tunable White dimming technologies provide personalized and intelligent lighting solutions? How do they cleverly integrate into these scenarios? In the next article, we will explore in detail the specific application cases of Warm-dim and Tunable White dimming technologies, so stay tuned!圣昌案例：
