DYNAMIC LIGHT CIRCADIAN RHYTHM
TUNEABLE WHITE LIGHTING HEALTH & WELLBEING
The positive effects of natural light include:
• Regulation of our biological clock
• Enhanced comfort, energy and relaxation
• Improved concentration and accuracy
• Being in a better mood throughout the day
• Greater efficiency and performance
• Evenly-balanced sleep / wake cycle
• Reduced risk of accidents and health issues
Biodynamic Lighting & The Circadian Rhythm Natural light has a measurable impact on our sense of wellbeing. The sun provides the fuel for all biological life on earth, with the light it provides being an important part of everyday life. Natural light is dynamic; from sunrise to sunset, it has a great impact on our sense of wellbeing. The circadian rhythm is a natural internal process which regulates the sleep/wake cycle, repeating every 24 hours. Throughout our lives, we often miss the sun’s benefits by spending a lot of our time indoors or working during the evening and at night, which is a huge challenge for our circadian rhythm. Typical artificial lighting is fixed from the moment we wake, to when we go to sleep. Tuneable White luminaires, also known as human-centric or dynamic lighting, aim to mimic natural daylight, which helps support the circadian rhythm and create the best possible conditions at work and in our homes.
Changing the light colour and intensity creates a relationship between artificial light and daylight, which has an invigorating effect. For example, this versatility enables a dining area to also be lit for communal activities and groups. Lighting scenes can also be automated or adapted via the Aurora Bluetooth app, or with wall controllers and switches.

The Clear Advantages of Bluetooth AOne™ Control Traditional DALI systems can be prohibitively expensive, with other brand’s tuneable white luminaires deemed unsuitable for sensitive environments as found in dementia care. Aurora’s Bluetooth AOne technology and standard 3 core wiring makes new installation at least 75% more cost effective - higher for retrofit installation, as no additional wiring is required.
