Abstract :
The big changes in indoor illumination caused by the introduction of LED-based devices may have effects on the health and well-being of the persons that are still under study. From the point of view of flicker, these changes further highlight the inadequacy of the current international standard. With the aim of providing a contribution to a matter that involves several scientific disciplines, new results on pupil responses induced by RGB flickering stimuli are presentedin this paper. Tests on volunteers have been performed to evaluate the inter- and intra-subject variability of pupil responses induced by the above stimuli.An instrument formerly developed (and described in previous paper) has been usedto investigate the pupil response. The results of this extensive measurement campaign are presented and discussed.
