The Efficiency of Modern Blue Light Inhibiting Technology

We hope to examine the extent to which blue light radiation with 412-426 nm wavelengths is associated with one’s circadian rhythm, and how these effects are limited by various brands of blue light blocking technology. Different groups of participants will use electrode based sleep trackers to monitor when they fall asleep, how long they sleep, and how much of that time is spent in rapid eye movement. Doing so will allow the general public to better understand how well blue light glasses help filter out blue light radiation in relation to one’s circadian rhythm, while providing valuable information to companies who have a responsibility to improve their blue light inhibiting technology.
