A new generation of LED luminaries for Human Centric Lighting Applications

Project description

Lights on for happier, smarter and more creative people

Natural light is vital for our health. Indoor lighting is just as important for our overall mental and physical health. With this in mind, the EU-funded WEL-LED-BEING project will bring to market a new family of LED lights that re-optimised to fulfil the requirements of the human-centric lighting (HLC) market. HLC is defined as lighting devoted to enhancing human performance, comfort, health and well-being – separately or in some combination. The benefits of HCL for humans are vital. Lack of natural light is impacting human health and is associated with depression, stress and anxiety, as well as a lack of centration and a reduction in learning, memory and innovation capacities.
