Their primary focus centers around circadian rhythms, and they aim to redefine how light can be manipulated to support optimal human well-being. The company's approach involves altering the composition of white light in a manner invisible to the naked eye, demonstrating this through a compelling Lego model that changes colors without physically altering the bricks. The objective here is not merely to showcase a technological feat but to produce lighting solutions that facilitate restful nights by eliminating the cues that signal daytime to the body.
One of Korrus's key demonstrations involves a seemingly ordinary light that, despite its appearance, is blue-free. This unique characteristic makes it suitable for nighttime use without the risk of disrupting the circadian rhythm. Through a demonstration using diffraction lenses, the company underscores the absence of blue light in their products, a crucial factor for indicating daytime. This technology extends beyond traditional light bulbs to displays, where they have successfully removed blue light for nighttime use and incorporated extra blue light for daytime, achieving circadian-appropriate lighting without any noticeable visual changes.
In distinguishing their technology from popular features like Night Shift on smartphones, Korrus emphasizes that they achieve a more substantial impact. They showcase displays transitioning subtly between modes throughout the day, delivering lighting suitable for different times. The integration of their technology into the entire system involves a combination of hardware and software components, providing a seamless and comprehensive solution.
The product lineup extends beyond displays to include an LCD display featuring circadian-friendly technology. Additionally, they present a device designed for spaces lacking natural light, simulating a sky gradient for daytime and transitioning to a sunset-like appearance for nighttime use. Korrus's collaboration with research partners, particularly universities, highlights their commitment to advancing the understanding of human circadian rhythms. This collaborative effort involves using their technology to conduct experiments that address previously unexplored questions in this field.
The company also introduces a zero-blue gaming display designed to enable extended gaming sessions without suppressing melatonin, thereby preserving the natural sleep rhythms of users. Korrus acknowledges that while mass production has not yet been applied to displays, their lighting products are already widely available and installed in various settings.
In summary, Korrus emerges as a trailblazer in the realm of lighting technologies, presenting a comprehensive range of products that go beyond the conventional. Their emphasis on circadian rhythms and the invisible manipulation of light composition underscores a commitment to enhancing human experiences while ensuring restful nights and maintaining natural sleep rhythms.
