FEATURES OF ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH HUMAN BIORYTHMS

Sleep and insomnia: The paper discusses how artificial lighting can affect the quality of sleep, and how it can be optimized to improve sleep quality.

Alertness and performance: The paper discusses how artificial lighting can affect human productivity and alertness, particularly through its impact on circadian rhythms.

Depression: The paper mentions that a seasonal decrease in daylight can cause seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a type of depression.

Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how light can affect physiological functions at the cellular level, which could potentially impact cognitive function and memory.

Seasonal affective disorder: The paper discusses how a seasonal decrease in daylight can cause seasonal affective disorder (SAD).

Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses various considerations for designing artificial lighting that is consistent with human biorhythms, including the direction of light, the color temperature, and the intensity of the blue part of the light spectrum.

Well-being: The paper discusses how artificial lighting can affect human well-being, particularly through its impact on circadian rhythms.
