Classifying Indoor Versus Outdoor Environments Using the Actiwatch Spectrum PRO | A 1000 Lux Threshold is Questionable

In this small-scale study of the Actiwatch Spectrum Pro, derived red light irradiance thresholds out performed the more commonly used 1000 lux white light threshold in correctly classifying indoor and outdoor environments. In this context, the potential utility of wavelength-dependent irradiance cutoff values warrants further investigation, with due consideration to study-specific differences in geographic locations, climate and season.

Abstract

In this small-scale study of the Actiwatch Spectrum Pro, derived red light irradiance thresholds out performed the more commonly used 1000 lux white light threshold in correctly classifying indoor and outdoor environments. In this context, the potential utility of wavelength-dependent irradiance cutoff values warrants further investigation, with due consideration to study-specific differences in geographic locations, climate and season.
