How can LED desk lamps be designed to make the lighting area more reasonable?

It is easy for people to ignore familiar things around them, like a table lamp that is turned on and off on the table, and few people pay attention to it. However, if you pay attention to it, you will find that it seems that the area illuminated by most desk lamps is circular.

Why is it round? From candle kerosene lamps to later bulb lamps, the light from table lamps diverges from a point light source to form a round outline. People often attach round lamp covers to table lamps, so that most of the table lamps emit Round light.

Is it common?

Can a circle be reasonable? Recall that you are used to putting common things on the left and right sides on the desktop? Whether it's books or piles of documents, we subconsciously spread them to the left and right. According to a study by Purdue University in the United States, the range of desktops commonly used in people's daily work actually extends horizontally.

Under common circular lighting, the sides of the work area are often difficult to illuminate.

Sometimes, a desk lamp is not only for one's desktop space. From 2015 to 2017, the BenQ WiT table lamp research and development team conducted a two-year survey of 1,000 families with 4-12 year-old children. Accumulated data show that 3 out of 4 parents will accompany their children to read and write homework, and 75% of families have lighting needs. Parents tutor their children to study. When two people sit and read and write together, the desktop they need to use is obviously wider.

Common table lamps can only illuminate an approximately round area, and the left and right sides of the desktop are usually dark. So we often see scenes where parents mentor their children to study, but the desk lamp can only illuminate one side; although the desk lamp on is on, you can add a notebook and the reference materials will not be illuminated.

Working and studying under such lighting conditions, eyes can only alternate between light and dark, which can unavoidably produce eye fatigue and glare.

Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the entire study work area is adequately lighted. The table lamp should really illuminate the horizontal area extending to both sides. Maybe only a circle is not enough. To solve the problem, it is the key to widen the lighting range of the desk lamp. Ovals may be better!

Some table lamp brands have tried this, including Yamada Lighting, Japan's premier LED lamp factory, and Koncept in the United States, which have turned the round light heads of point light sources into long bars, allowing the lighting area to expand horizontally.

However, due to the higher requirements for products, BenQ WiT table lamps are concerned about whether there is any way to do this better.

BenQ WiT also launched the MindDuo series of smart desk lamps, which are specifically aimed at parent-child reading and children reading and writing.

Turning a circle into an ellipse is very simple, but it is difficult to make simple changes to the extreme, from the demanding engineers, programmers, long-time desk writers and screenwriters, to the designers, editors, and hopeful Jackie Chan who read the screen heavily Parents, BenQ WiT has become more and more a wise choice for quality-oriented and practical living homes.
