Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2014160244A1] A lighting apparatus including a plurality of luminaires capable of generating polychromatic light having a dominant wavelength in the visible spectrum and arranged into an array and a computerized device (200) electrically coupled to the plurality of luminaires (300) so as to selectively operate each individual luminaire to produce source light varying with each other and with time. The computerized device (200) operates the luminaire (300) such that each luminaire (300) emits a source light, the source lights combining to form a combined light having selected characteristics. Each of the plurality of luminaires (300) may be operable to emit light having increased spectral opponency, thereby reducing melatonin suppression. The source lights, when perceived directly, recreate a lighting scenario having varying lighting characteristics.
