    Understanding Melanopic Lighting for Improved Indoor Environments

    Light plays a crucial role not only in our ability to see but also in regulating our internal body clock, sleep patterns, and overall well-being. Traditional lighting design primarily focuses on visual comfort and task illumination. However, recent advancements have shed light on the concept of melanopic lighting, which specifically targets the non-visual effects of light on human health. Human eyes contain special light-sensitive cells called intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). These cells contain a photopigment called melanopsin, which is most sensitive to blue-green light wavelengths. When stimulated by light, melanopsin triggers various non-visual responses in the body.
