Abstract :
Short-wavelength illuminants of a blue color are used in lighting SAGE and other military operations rooms in which dim cathode-ray tubes are the primary visual source of information. This study investigated the effect of such lighting on the operator´s visual acuity in the performance of secondary visual tasks.
