How Many Lights – Standards AS/NZS 1680.1:2006
The How Many Lights website is a very useful source of information on the “Recommended maintained luminance” for the activity/interior.
For example a value of 40 Lux is recommended for areas “with Interiors rarely visited with visual tasks limited to movement and orientation” such as corridors or walkways.
A value of 1600 Lux is recommended for areas that are “Exceptionally difficult ” such as Finished fabric inspection; assembly of minute mechanisms, jewellery and watchmaking.
There is also a table recommending the Watts/Square metre

What is Philips Interlaced Optics Technology?
Philips Interlaced Optics Technology is a proprietary technology developed by Philips that enhances the performance of optical systems, particularly in displays and imaging devices. It optimizes light distribution and improves image clarity by interlacing the optical pathways, resulting in better visual quality and reduced distortions. Colour Rendering Index CRI 90.
What does Colour Rendering Index 90 mean?
Color Rendering Index (CRI) 90 indicates that a light source can render colors very accurately and closely to how they appear under natural light. A CRI of 90 or above is considered excellent for tasks requiring accurate color perception, such as in photography, art studios, and retail settings.
