According to several scientific studies light influences human well-being and mood. A well-lit work environment helps people to live better and sleep better: the most important light is NATURAL light so artificial light must be as close as possible to this.
Smart lighting systems have been developed to reproduce in a natural way the succession of the day-night rhythm and therefore the succession of hours in indoor work environments, in particular in offices and medical environments (hospitals, nursing homes).
In order to successfully realize Human Centric Lighting projects the lighting system has to mimic the natural light of the Sun reproducing several different colour temperatures and lighting intensities in order to create a natural environment that satisfy the human biological cycle.
ATENA LUX bedhead units and lighting fittings integrate LEDs with different colour temperatures and dimmable drivers. The lighting management is realized through an automatic regulation system synchronized with an astronomical clock at local time.

 

In order to successfully realize Human Centric Lighting projects the lighting system has to mimic the natural light of the Sun reproducing several different colour temperatures and lighting intensities in order to create a natural environment that satisfy the human biological cycle. <br />HCL (Human Centric Light) principle is very well appreciated inside hospitals and recovery clinics. In these places the natural light is almost absent and it is necessary an artificial light that respects the human natural biorhythms. The HCL systems bring visible advantages to the quality of patient&rsquo;s stay, helping the rehabilitation and a comfortable recovery.
ATENA LUX lighting fittings are equipped with LED modules with different colour temperature (2700K- 6500K). According to its specific exigencies, the company has realized some linear LED modules that fit perfectly to the existing lighting bodies. HCL system includes a central management unit that is programmed according the geographic position or a particular exigency. It also includes a real-time clock which allows for the automatic progression of the lighting intensity and colour temperature according the natural change of the circadian rhythm. In combination with a lighting and movement sensor, additional energy savings can be achieved. Controlling this system is easily possible via push-button or touch panel.
PATIENT’S ROOMS
PATIENT’S ROOMS Patients who spend most of the day indoors, due to illness or mobility problems, experience an alteration of the sleep-wake rhythm, in particular, patients afflicted with dementia and other cognitive diseases suffer the lack of natural light. In the hospital rooms, we try to faithfully reproduce the natural cycle of the light, replicating the same colour and intensity of light at dawn, in the afternoon and at sunset. The effects in patients and medical staff are positive and different. For patients, artificial light can compensate for the lack of natural light and restore a good sleep-awake rhythm, reducing the stay in the structure and the use of antidepressants. Benefits are relevant also for medical staff: HCL systems prevent the onset of insomnia, increase physical well-being and improve the relationship with patients, moreover they reduce headaches and tired eyes in free time.
