Circadian LED Lighting Technology

BIOS®, SkyBlue® lighting was designed by human biology, for human biology to promote better sleep, better energy—and better health.

CIRCADIAN LIGHTING WITHOUT COMPROMISE

As a NASA spinoff, BIOS is a biology-first company. We believe in the power of life. We create technologies that harness this power — and optimize it. We’re helping people adapt to modern life by blending evolutionary biology with revolutionary lighting solutions to make the world brighter.

BIOS SkyBlue is a proprietary circadian lighting solution for residential and commercial applications and produces the healthy ‘sky blue’ light signal needed to stimulate human circadian biology. You can say goodbye to complicated controls, the energy-sapping increases in illumination necessary, and poor quality color temperature. 
BIOS SkyBlue® circadian lighting helps people to function at a higher level — and live healthier, happier and more productive lives.

REAL CIRCADIAN LIGHT FOR BETTER SLEEP AND BETTER HEALTH

The science is clear—artificial light has a negative effect on our health. But that’s about to change. BIOS has revolutionized indoor lighting by reverse engineering human biology to create LED lighting solutions that provide the natural “blue-sky” spectrum of light that our bodies need to maintain healthy sleep patterns and promote well-being.

BIOS SkyBlue solutions are perfect for:

THE MISSION TO EARTH

BIOS SKYBLUE TECHNOLOGY

The seeds for what would become BIOS were sewn at NASA, where subject matter expert and BIOS Vice President Robert Soler developed circadian lighting technology for the International Space Station (ISS) to help astronauts achieve healthy sleep patterns in an environment where the sun rises and sets every 90 minutes.

Space is an unforgiving place where small mistakes can mean deadly consequences. In order to keep astronauts alert, focused and safe, NASA needed a way to help them regulate their sleep schedules. Soler and other NASA scientists went to work on an LED system that would signal their bodies when it was time to sleep and time to wake by communicating directly with the astronauts’ circadian biology. The lighting technology they created remains in use on the ISS today.

BIOS SkyBlue® is an evolution of the technology used to help astronauts achieve healthy sleep patterns on the International Space Station. Today, BIOS SkyBlue technology is available in residential and commercial industries.

LIGHT THAT SPEAKS THE LANGUAGE OF HUMAN BIOLOGY

To provide the light that humans need to stay healthy, you first must understand how the human body works. BIOS SkyBlue lighting was created by NASA scientists and engineers using human biology as the starting point—and working backwards from there.

Unlike other circadian lighting “technologies,” SkyBlue provides a light wavelength that communicates directly with human biology via a non-visual photoreceptor in the eye—the natural blue-sky light that our cellular biology has recognized for tens of thousands of years.
