  • Patent number: 11504545
    Abstract: Disclosures of the present invention describe a method for inhibiting melatonin secretion. In the present invention, an illumination device is particularly configured for emitting an illumination light with a specific wavelength that is in a range between 581 nm and 590 nm, and a variety of experimental data have proved that the illumination light functions as a melatonin secretion inhibitor. Therefore, the illumination device of the present invention is evidenced to be suitable for use in light therapy, so as to treat seasonal affective disorder (SAD) by way of inhibiting melatonin secretion. Briefly speaking, after a SAD patient receives the irradiation of the illumination light having wavelength ranged in 581-590 nm for a treatment course, the SAD patient is eventually leaded to stay in good spirits and a stable condition of emotion, thereby curing the abnormal symptoms of sleepiness and emotional disorder.

  • Patent number: 11422087
    Abstract: Disclosures of the present invention describe a device for measuring retina safety improvement index, comprising: a light receiving unit, a first data processing unit and a second data processing unit. The light receiving unit receives a first visible light and a second visible light that is obtained by letting the first visible light pass through a blue light blocking product. The first data processing unit calculates a first maximum permissible exposure (MPE) of the first visible light and a second MPE of the second visible light. The second data processing unit calculates a retina safety improvement (RSI) index based on the first MPE and the second MPE. As such, by using this device, a consumer is facilitated to know how much eyes-protecting ability does a specific blue light blocking product have, without needing to read any numeric value of blue light filtering percentage and/or unfamiliar spectrogram.

  • Publication number: 20220005399
    Abstract: A device having functionality of eye protection is disclosed, which principally comprises a display main body and a light parameter regulating unit. The light parameter regulating unit is adopted for regulating a color temperature (CT) of a specific light that is radiated from the display main body down to be below 3000K. Moreover, the specific light is eventually regulated down to have a minimum CT of 2000K, and an illuminance of the specific light is steppedly dimmed to be close to 0 lx. Experimental data have proved that, after being applied with the light parameter regulating process, a value of MPE of the specific light is largely increased, and a ratio of MSS is significantly lowered. In addition, when a user is watching the display device, the illuminance of the specific light can also be automatically adjusted to approach an illuminance of an ambient light.

  • Patent number: 10663144
    Abstract: Disclosures of the present invention describe a human body-friendly light source constituted by at least one lighting unit and a plurality of color temperature (CT) reducing films stacked to each other. The CT reducing films are connected to a light emission surface of the lighting unit, so as to apply a color temperature reducing treatment to a light emitted from the lighting unit. Exponential data have proved that, two or more stacked CT reducing films exhibit an apparent color temperature reducing effect on the light. Exponential data have proved that, with the increasing of the stack numbers of the CT reducing films, the light is concerted to an orange-white light with color temperature in a range of 1,000-2,500 K, so as to make a sensitivity of melatonin suppression in response to the light be getting lower.

  • Publication number: 20190371980
    Abstract: Disclosures of the present invention describe a luminance and color temperature tunable light source consisting of a plurality of lighting elements and a plurality of light conversion units, wherein parts of the lighting elements are connected with one light conversion unit by a light emission surface thereof. According to the particular design of the present invention, part of the light conversion units comprise only one light conversion film and the other part of the light conversion units comprise two or more light conversion film stacked to each other. By such design, when the lighting elements emit light with high color temperature, the light conversion unit would apply a light conversion process to the light, so as to modulate the color temperature and the luminance of the light. Therefore, the light source proposed by the present invention succeeds in exhibiting a brightness and color temperature individually-tunable function.
