Abstract

Flicker, or more precisely temporal light modulation (TLM), has reemerged as a problem with the introduction of LED-based lighting technology. TLM, meaning variations in light intensity over time, may have negative effect on human health, causing annoyance, headaches, eyestrain and migraine. In addition to the unnecessary suffering TLM causes in individuals, the negative consequences of TLM create an obstacle to broad and rapid adaptation of the new LED-technology and consequently also an obstacle to potential
energy savings.
