Summary
This paper provides an overview of human-centric lighting (HCL) principles with a focus on Indian contexts, examining how light affects biological, emotional, and visual wellbeing. It highlights the potential for IoT-integrated lighting systems to dynamically support circadian health and productivity in Indian built environments.
