Mitsubishi Built A Fake Skylight That Looks So Real!

For those who are doing white-collar jobs, there hardly anything more boring than the gloomy white at offices. In fact, the creators of those buildings do not think that they can get natural light for their central offices; therefore, it creates a chance for Mitsubishi to come up with an LED skylight that looks pretty similar to the light from Sun. 

It is obvious that Mitshubishi is not the first company that tries to use a big LED screen to simulate daylight; however, there are several things that make its method stand out from others. 

While most LED radiate their light in all directions, sunlight is shone more in one direction. In order to illustrate this lighting in the most vivid way, Mitshubishi creates Misola panels that use a recessed three-sided frame. When this frame is lightened, it can make a sharp shadow being seemingly the same as the sunlight.  

The blue you see is not as simple as what you think, it is the result of Rayleigh scattering generation that is specially filtered by the panel. Moreover, the light color’s adaption happens all day, emulating the lighting from the sunrise to the sunset. These features can be both autonomously and manually controlled.  

Unfortunately, you can not find these interesting products in Home Depot to have them installed in your dimly lit apartment. It is specially made for offices, hospitals, and other places in commercial use. Furthermore, it also costs an arm and a leg. Specifically, it costs around $6200 for a manually timed light and more than $6800 for an autonomously controlled one. If you are in the money, you will possibly own one in October 2020.
