Abstract

This paper deals with influence of LED radiation on brain wave signals. Diodes that emit light radiation for room lighting are being increasingly used, and are also used in tablet screens, laptops, televisions, and smartphones. Recent research shows that the light emitted by the LEDs affects various physiological functions because they emit light in the 400–490 nm range, which is blue. This work presents the effect of the LED light coming from the computer monitor on the brain electrical activity record.
