A screen in F.lux's "darkroom mode" On installation, the user can choose a location based on geographic coordinates, a ZIP code, or the name of a location.The program then automatically calibrates the device display's color temperature to account for time of day, based on sunrise and sunset at the chosen location.
A thyristor dimmer rack An electrical schematic for a typical SCR-based light dimmer Solid-state , or semiconductor , dimmers were introduced to solve some of these problems. Semiconductor dimmers switch on at an adjustable time (phase angle) after the start of each alternating-current half-cycle, thereby altering the voltage waveform applied ...
It emits more blue light than traditional incandescent bulbs, potentially impacting the quality of sleep and eye health if used excessively at night. [2] [8] A person using a smartphone at night. Blue light is emitted by digital screens such as computers, tablets, smartphones, and televisions, which can lead to extended exposure in modern lives ...
Electrochromic mirrors use a combination of optoelectronic sensors and complex electronics that monitor both ambient light and the intensity of the light shining on the surface. As soon as glare makes contact with the surface, these mirrors automatically dim reflections of flashing light from following vehicles at night so that a driver can see ...
Blue light, a type of high-energy light, is part of the visible light spectrum. High-energy visible light (HEV light) is short-wave light in the violet/blue band from 400 to 450 nm in the visible spectrum, which has a number of purported negative biological effects, namely on circadian rhythm and retinal health (blue-light hazard), which can lead to age-related macular degeneration.
Night Shift is a built in software feature of iOS and macOS.It was introduced in 2016–2017 into iOS in iOS 9.3 and into macOS in macOS Sierra 10.12.4. [1] The feature changes the color temperature of the display towards the warmer part of the color spectrum [2] that reduces some of the blue light from the screen. [3]

Like all incandescent light bulbs, a halogen lamp produces a continuous spectrum of light, from near ultraviolet to deep into the infrared. [23] Since the lamp filament can operate at a higher temperature than a non-halogen lamp, the spectrum is shifted toward blue, producing light with a higher effective color temperature and higher power ...
