Innovative Human Centric Lighting
Humans have evolved for millions of years under the sun's radiation filtered by the earth's atmosphere, more commonly known as daylight. At Telelumen, we believe that the ability to reproduce a natural dawn-to-dusk light spectrum is essential for the human experience - true human-centric lighting. Advances in solid-state LED lighting combined with state-of-the-art software, networking, and control technologies have enabled Telelumen to produce light spectra that can be made to closely match the dynamic illumination that occurs in nature. Our goal is to provide solutions for reproducing visible light spectra and, in a general way, further the mathematics and science relating to illumination and the visible spectrum. At Telelumen, we innovate to create illumination systems that not only replicate the quality and rhythm of daylight, but also easily and intuitively create almost any synthesized light spectra that the user can design. It is Smart Lighting, human-centric lighting, at its best.

The worldwide aging population is leading to an increase in the number of people with vision impairments. The IXR Platform, an imaging and extended reality program of University Jean Monnet, Saint-Étienne, France, is currently doing research that focuses on studying the role of lighting in providing visual assistance to low vision people.
The light laboratory uses the Telelumen Dittosizer Light Player, a 24 channel programable spectrum LED luminaire, which allows the researchers to generate a very wide range of tailored light spectrum conditions. These lighting conditions are necessary for carrying out psychophysical experiments that investigate how lighting properties affect the visual performance of visually impaired people.

Telelumen has recently partnered with Image-Engineering to expand lighting solutions for companies needing accurate light spectrum illumination in their testing of products. Image-Engineering is a German company that has over the past 20 years led the development of the next generation of modular, automated, image quality testing technology that companies worldwide are utilizing to improve the performance of their cameras.
Telelumen software programable spectrum LED luminaires are dynamic multi-channel light synthesizers that can be installed in the ceiling and replace conventional lights. Their large area illumination capabilities are ideal for critical illumination control test environments, such as hospitals, human vision factor research, critical color evaluation environments (light booths) and test labs for cameras and displays.

Telelumen is a proud sponsor of the Society for Light, Rhythms, and Circadian Health 36th Annual Meeting, taking place in Boston, June 13-16, 2025.
The Society for Light, Rhythms, and Circadian Health (SLRCH) is an international scientific non-profit organization devoted to promoting research and knowledge about the effects of light on the organism and humans.
Founded in 1988 as the Society for Light Treatment and Biological Rhythms, the society has brought together leading scientific experts, clinicians, and interested participants from different professional and multi-disciplinary backgrounds for discussion and exchange on the science and practical application of chronotherapy in medicine.
Steve Paolini, the CEO of Telelumen, will be giving a talk with the title: "Exploring the Complex Dynamics and Human Consumption of High CCT Daylight"
Brief Abstract:
Through the work of Telelumen, it has been revealed that the CCTs of natural daylight frequently exceed those typically observed in electric lighting products and clinical studies. This presentation will examine the surprising variability and high CCT content inherent in daylight and explore its often-underappreciated aesthetic appeal to humans. In doing so, it will propose potential avenues for future research aimed at refining our understanding of daylight's complexities and its broader implications for lighting design and human health.

Since 2007 Telelumen has been a world leader in programmable full spectrum LED lighting. Since 1975 GTI Graphic Technology, Inc. has been a leading manufacturer of viewing booths for the visual appraisal of critical color. During the InfoFlex trade show in Pittsburgh, PA from May 5th to 6th, 2025, the two companies will present a technology demonstration of a new programable full spectrum LED viewing solution.
The demonstration viewing booth will feature two Telelumen Dittosizer luminaires mounted on a GTI CMB-3052 color matching booth. The viewing area is 52” wide by 30” deep. The booth has the capability to output 10,000 lumens across 1,500K to 50,000K CCT spectrum, reproduce standard CIE illuminants such as D50 and D65, replicate any light source – LED, tungsten, fluorescent etc. and to be easily tuned to a specific custom target light spectrum profiles by using the built in touch screen. There are 12 industry spectrums pre-programmed and directly accessible through the touch screen. An optional physical separator can be inserted between the two luminaires for side-by-side viewing of similar objects under different light sources.
This new programable viewing system can eliminate the need for different lamp sets. With this one booth a user can easily view ISO 3664 and ASTM D1729 viewing conditions satisfying the need of the graphic arts and industrial color markets. At the same time end-use and retail lighting conditions can easily be replicated. This programmable and flexible color evaluation system will easily adjust to meet any lighting requirement enabling material testing to be more precise due to exact replication of all relevant lighting conditions.
The viewing booth is based on the Telelumen Dittosizer, a cutting-edge, fully programmable spectrum LED luminaire that uniquely integrates 24 independently controlled color channels, spanning from UVA to NIR. It delivers exceptional light output, exceeding 5,000 lumens, and is paired with advanced software capable of synthesizing any spectral power distribution. Telelumen’s software sets a new standard in flexibility, enabling users to precisely configure and resolve all 24 color channels to match any desired output spectrum. The Dittosizer can be adapted to fit on any GTI ColorMatcher viewing booth.
