Background

Whether in office or at home, people are spending more and more time in front of screens. Prolonged screen use in inadequate lighting conditions can lead to eye strain and fatigue. Therefore, we aim to enhance lighting conditions for screen users. Our focus is on providing comfortable lighting while balancing contrast glare without any screen reflections. Also, we discovered that screen users often have limited workspace. To address this issue, we designed a lamp that can easily be mounted on the screen, freeing the desk space. Furthermore, through observations, we found that sometimes users forget to turn on the light, forget to turn it off when they leave, or are unsure about the optimal brightness level. That’s why we incorporated automatic on/off and intelligent dimming features.

History and Achievements

To provide optimal lighting for screen users, ScreenBar Pro features a patented asymmetric optical design with a high reflectivity reflector, enhancing light efficiency and ensuring a wide and uniform lighting coverage while eliminating screen glare. The unique structural design of the clamp allows users to effortlessly attach it to various screens within seconds, without any complicated assembly process or limitations. It is compatible with curved screens, ultra-thin screens, and even ultra-thick screens. It avoids obstructing the screen and its built-in camera or microphone, and prevents causing frame reflections. Additionally, the lamp is equipped with built-in light and human detection sensors, enabling automatic on/off and auto-dimming function for a more intelligent user experience.

Evaluation Comments：“ScreenBar Pro” is a monitor light equipped with an advanced interface that reduces computer users’ fatigue. The unique design of the clamp allows this product to fit various types of screen such as curved, thin, or thick surface and also prevent it from interfering a built-in microphone or camera and getting with no screen glare. This is well designed to be minimal and reliable considering user comfort. The simple body may look plain at a glance, however, you can see this is very elaborate work once you touch it.
