High TLCI Illumination for Accurate Color in Telework & Indoor Video Recording

Nichia, the world’s largest LED manufacturer and inventor of the high-brightness blue and white LEDs, announces the addition of the first mid power LED capable of delivering the high-quality light necessary to meet the demands of telework and indoor video recording.

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) Technical Committee has defined one indicator to express quality of light, the Television Lighting Consistency Index (TLCI). TLCI quantifies the color reproduction of illuminated objects when they are projected on a display through a camera.

Nichia has had a high-power LED lineup with what it calls 'great TLCI metrics', specifically targeting stadium lighting, including the NV4WB35AM, NV4WB35AR and NVSW519A series.　

However, with the continued adoption of remote work as well as other new online activities, there is an increasing demand for indoor lighting with high color reproducibility through a camera, such as virtual meetings, video recordings and more. To respond to this demand, Nichia has developed and launched a TLCI option with the NFSW757G-P5H6/R9050j85t90, which achieves high TLCI metrics for lighting in indoor video production.
