What is the Circadian Rhythm for the Nobi Lamp ?

What is a circadian rhythm in general?

• Circadian rhythm refers to the internal biological process that regulates various physical, mental, and behavioural changes in our body.
• This internal “body clock” has a 24-hour cycle.
• It helps us to maintain a regular sleep-wake cycle, hunger and thirst cycles.
• Influences physiological processes such as: body temperature, hormone production, and metabolism.
• Our circadian rhythm is largely influenced by environmental cues such as light and darkness.
• Can be disrupted by factors like shift work, jet lag, and certain medical conditions.

The Circadian Rhythm in the Nobi lamp:

• Nobi follows the cycle of natural daylight: using variations in light intensity and color temperature.
• The light intensity increases gradually as the morning progresses.
• Around noon, when the sun reaches it’s zenith, the light intensity is at its brightest.
• The light intensity decreases gradually as the afternoon progresses to the evening.
• This can provide assistance to the internal body clock of people who spend the day almost entirely indoors.

The personal settings for the Nobi lamp: Light intensity:

• Can influence the circadian rhythm of Nobi.
• Light intensity set on 80% or less will safeguard the circadian rhythm.
• If the brightness is set above 80 to 100%, a great part of the circadian rhythm is lost.
• Above 100% you lose all the benefits of the circadian rhythm.

The personal settings for the Nobi lamp: Color temperature:

• Natural light consists of variations in cold white light and warm white light.
• The difference between the 2 lies in the color temperature.
• The lower the color temperature is, the more yellow the light is, the warmer the color of the light is.
• The higher the color temperature is, the whiter the light is, the colder the color of the light is.
• Cold white light has a lot of blue components in it = slows down/stops the melatonin production (induces sleep) = keeps us alert – active.
• Warm white light has hardly any blue components in it = no influence on melatonin production = helps to relax – calm down.
