Experiment Result ConclusionIntroduction
Blue Light
• Photoreceptors in the retina called melanopsin cells*• improve human arousal when stimulated
• have spectral sensitivity peaks around the wavelength of 480nm

Introduction
Previous Study*
• An experiment was conducted• to evaluate the intellectual concentration improvement
effect by blue light exposure
• As the result,• the feeling of dazzling disturbs intellectual work

Experiment Result Conclusion
Blue light exposure
Cause the feeling of dazzling
disturb intellectual
work

Introduction
Purpose of this Study
• to find which blue light conditions cause feeling of dazzling or disturb intellectual work
• four blue light conditions (shown in next slide)• changing Luminance and Light emitting area

Questionnaire
• Physical Condition questionnaire• subjective fatigue, arousal, concentration with 100 grades
• Glare questionnaire• subjective dazzling of each light condition with 9 grades
(shown in next slide)
• Final questionnaire (choice and free description)• which conditions were distractive
• which conditions were not acceptable

Result
Conclusion
• Measured the subjective evaluation of glare
• As the result, 3 factors cause feeling of dazzling• Luminance
• Asymmetric irradiation
• Light emitting area
• In the four light conditions,• 2 units condition is the best in the point of glare
