FIVE metrics of circadian rhythm lightingCircadian rhythm lighting is no longer a novel concept that everyone may has different understandings of it and it could be from simple color temperature tuning to comprehensive spectral power distribution, or from simple brightness diming to follow the ipRGCs (intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells) rhythm feature to design the dimming program…here we will introduce five key metrics that the circadian rhythm lighting will never get around of these and they stand for the non-visual biological effect from light, and understanding these metrics are particularly important for designing the new era of human-centric lighting.
