These lights create a pleasant atmosphere and improve visibility during the flight. They are used for reading, relaxing or creating a specific mood. Cabin lighting encompasses overhead lights, reading lights, and mood lighting. Overhead lights generally brighten the cabin, whereas reading lights can be more focused and are often movable by the passengers. Mood lighting can change hues and brightness according to the various stages of the flight, for instance, take-off, mealtime, or sleeping hours . Modern aircrafts use LED lights for cabin lighting. LED lights consume less energy and have longer life expectancy. They can also be controlled easily to produce various lighting effects. Effective cabin lighting improves passenger comfort and is able to lessen jet lag by simulating natural light patterns. Thus, aircraft cabin lighting is an impor...
