The positioning of the inio one lamp is crucial for the effective use of the HCL technology. In order for the lamp to fully perform its function, it should be placed near a reflective surface such as a wall, ceiling or sloping ceiling. Ideally, the lamp should be about 15 to 20 cm from the wall. This allows the light to reflect diffusely on the surface and cover a wide area.
Why does this work? The design and positioning of the inio one lamp enables indirect lighting that effectively stimulates the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGC) in our eyes. These cells react particularly to the blue components of the light, which are provided by the light emitted by the lamp. When these cells are stimulated, they send signals to the chronobiological center in our brain (the suprachiasmatic nucleus), which then controls the release of the sleep hormone melatonin.
By using the reflective surfaces in the room, the light emitted by the inio one lamp is distributed evenly in the room and can thus effectively stimulate the ipRGCs without glare. This design allows the lamp to be a comfortable and natural light source, helping to stabilize our circadian rhythm and improve overall well-being.
In order to achieve optimal results with the inio one lamp, in addition to the correct positioning, you should also ensure that the lamp does not shine directly into your eyes. Indirect lighting is more effective and pleasant.
With these tips and the right positioning, you can take full advantage of the Human Centric Lighting technology of the inio one lamp.
