Bluebalance: Prevent Eye Damage from Screens
Balancing blue light with frequencies found naturally in sunlight
Bluebalance introduces light in multiple frequencies missing from screens and man-made indoor light. These frequencies balance blue light coming from your computer screen, as the sun does at all hours of the day outdoors in nature.
(Red light in actual product is low intensity as to not distract from your work, and each LED light can be turned off if desired)
How it works
Infrared (805 nm, 830 nm, 850 nm) and Visible Red Light (660 nm)
- Supports your cell's mitochondria in producing the endogenous anti-oxidant melatonin via Cytochrome C [1]
- Supports proper functioning of opsins like melanopsin in your eyes and skin [2]
- Supports balanced blood sugar levels and hormone signaling [3]
- Supports proper free radical production from ROS and RNS caused by blue light [4]
Bluebalance Specs
Five 1 watt LEDs with glass lenses -Visible red light @ 660 nm -IR light @ 805 nm + 830 nm + 850 nm -UV-A light (black light) @ 365 nm
Aluminum and stainless steel case -Main body 6" x 0.5" x 0.25" -Zero plastic in housing -Magnetic silicone mount included
USB-C powered, from laptop or other power source -Each of the 5 light frequencies can be turned on or off
Bluebalance uses Near Infrared and Ultraviolet light which are invisible to the human eye. Please keep in mind there is only one low brightness red visible light, the others are invisible. Certain cameras can be used to verify the non-visible LEDs are functioning if desired. The device is powered via a USB-C port.
Uses for Bluebalance
Ditch the blue blocking glasses and red screen filters
You can wear blue blocking glasses or use a red color filter on your screen, but this drastically reduces the visual appeal and fidelity of what you're viewing. Bluebalance restores the balance of blue and red light frequencies as found in nature from sunlight, letting you keep your screen's natural colors for media viewing or color-sensitive creative work.
Use Bluebalance in the car
Closed windows block most other frequencies of light, increasing the proportion of your blue light exposure
Bluebalance's Design
Bluebalance is designed to be as small and portable as possible, while still retaining the power to balance blue light. It features a precision machined textured aluminum body, polished stainless steel rear casing, and high quality glass lenses.
Color options
Development plan and timeline
Bluebalance is currently going through final testing before full scale manufacturing.
Our current shipping timeframe is around March 15th 2025.
The PCBAs are created for final production and the housing geometry and industrial design is complete.
We are validating device firmware and optimizing housing integrity before mass production.
Each Bluebalance is machined from metal and attached to a silicone mount compatible with most computer screens and car visors.
