Signify and Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team Launch Performance Desk Lamp

Conceived and created by optics engineers at Signify the desk lamp incorporates cutting-edge technologies and specifications with a design inspired by Mercedes F1. The Signify Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Desk Lamp provides precision illumination, with a range of color temperature options, supports eye comfort and aids alertness in any scenario it is used for – from drawing and studying, to watching movies and playing e-sports.

The dimmable lamp features EyeCare light desktop technology with curved micro prism light emitting surfaces on both sides, which spread the light source without glare, making it ideal for any workspace or setting. The lamp is equipped with a resting reminder function to promote eye care and rest, as well as a motion sensor that turns the lamp off when the user walks away.

With a sleek design inspired by Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team – incorporating carbon fibre accents, a sand brushed aluminum stem and the team's iconic color scheme – the lamp flawlessly spotlights the efforts of two world leaders in their respective fields. The high-performance materials not only reflect the race car design but also embody its exceptional wear resistance, resulting in a durable product.

The desk lamp will be on sale in China in the following weeks.

Richard Sanders, Chief Commercial Officer, Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 team, said: “Our partnership with Signify goes beyond logos on a car; it's about our shared commitment to bringing to life meaningful and responsible innovations. As our first collaborative product, this lamp stands as a testament to our joint passion for pushing the boundaries of what's possible. We’re proud of our creation and look forward to fans being able to experience cutting-edge design and technology in their own homes.”

Olivia Qiu, Chief Innovation Officer, CEO Greater China Business ad interim, Chairwoman of the Board of KLITE added: “At Signify, we are dedicated to unlocking the extraordinary potential of light to improve performance, well-being and our everyday surroundings. From lighting some of the world’s most iconic night races, to supporting the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One team at its HQ and as the team travels the globe, our products allow people to see, feel and perform at their best in the most demanding of circumstances. This desk lamp is the product of a deep collaboration, and we’re thrilled for customers to be able to purchase in China, in the coming weeks.”

In a sport where success is driven by marginal gains in performance, Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team and Signify, as its official lighting partner, are collaborating on lighting installations to deliver optimal conditions for athletes and team members to see, feel, and function at their best. Signify lighting innovations have been installed and integrated across multiple locations and facilities across the team’s estate and as they travel the world.

Signify’s NatureConnect technology has helped the team’s engineers focus during long simulator sessions at the team’s UK headquarters by mimicking natural daylight cycles in windowless areas. On the road, portable travel lamps help regulate circadian rhythms, helping drivers and engineers adjust light levels, controlling their exposure to stimulating blue light. Finally, as part of the scientifically designed jet lag plan, developed with the team doctor, light exposure is managed precisely to aid sleep, speed up recovery, and optimize cognitive function.

The Signify Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Desk Lamp will be available for purchase in China in the following weeks via: https://philipszm.tmall.com/(Priced at CNY 2,299).

Sunlight, UVB and Vitamin D – Human Centric Lighting Beyond Melanopic Stimulation

by Ir. Rémy C. Broersma and Dr. Ir. Marcel P. Lucassen, Scientists at Signify Research Eindhoven UVB radiation initiates vital processes in our body, one of which is the production of vitamin D in the skin. It is well known that over-exposure to the sun may bring a risk. Less well known is that the same is true for insufficient sun exposure due to our indoor lifestyle. In Part 1 of this article, we first describe the scientific understanding behind vitamin D. In Part 2 we describe how artificial light can be enriched with a safe, low dose of UVB, to supplement natural vitamin D production in the skin. Not too much, not too little.

Light in the Service of Health – Bringing the Science of Light and Health into Everyday Life through Evidence-based Communication

Light does far more than let us see. In this episode of the LED professional podcast, Manuel Spitschan and Laura Kervezee, co-chairs of the Light for Public Health Initiative, explain how light acts as the master regulator of the body’s internal clock: it synchronises our physiology with the day outside, shapes mood and alertness, and times the release of melatonin, the hormone that governs sleep. The science is settled enough to act on, so the initiative has distilled it into 26 consensus statements on how light affects the body and well-being, written as practical, evidence-based guidance for individuals, employers, schools and cities. A compact 14-minute briefing on why good light is a public-health question, and what to do about it. Based on the authors’ article in LED professional Review #112.

deLIGHTed Talks #8: Good Light – Good Sleep

Full recording of deLIGHTed Talks #8, held online by LpS DIGITAL on 24 April 2025 (91 minutes). Dr. Renske Lok (Stanford University) shows that bright light during the day deepens nighttime sleep, reduces nighttime awakenings, improves sleep efficiency and lowers next-day sleep inertia. Dr. Jeffrey Hubbard (University of Lausanne / EPFL) compares how light and darkness drive sleep and wakefulness in nocturnal mice and day-active Sudanian grass rats. Chronobiologist Dr. Virginie Gabel, founder of Clock&Me, moderates the session and the discussion on what the findings mean for lighting design.
