BenQ engineers testing asymmetric light design to ensure reliable, eye-care lighting that endures extreme conditions.

The Dedication to Engineering Behind

Lighting that Weathers Millions of Tests

From drop tests to extreme temperature cycles, the engineering behind BenQ’s state-of-the-art lighting must be as reliable as the professionals who depend on them. For us, reliability is not only proven in the lab — it is also built on discovering the problems users have yet to voice, and then solving them through optical innovations that protect one’s vision and sustain one’s focus.

Real asymmetric light effect by BenQ monitor light bar, reducing glare and uneven contrast to sustain professionals’ focus and comfort.

Only BenQ Works in This Way

For professionals who work with screens, hidden subtleties such as harsh reflections, intrusive glare, and uneven contrast are obstacles that hamper performance, because they erode focus and cause strain. So, we at BenQ make sure that our purpose is not just the simple task of making a desk brighter, but to create lighting precise enough to truly sustain a professional’s focus.

Our research begins in the lab

Countless Simulations that Help Redefine the Form Light Task

By undertaking more than millions of optical simulations — executed with the same precise standards as advanced medical-grade testing — we refined every variable related to our lighting: distribution angles, illumination ratios, and material reflectivity. Throughout this process each iteration brought us closer to the purest and most ideal form of light.

18° Anti-Glare Design

Inspired by architectural daylight simulations, the angle is calculated with exacting rigor so light falls only where it is needed, never directly into the eyes.

The Science of Selection

Each reflector is meticulously refined through repeated testing, chosen only when it restores light to its purest essence—just as the finest acoustic craftsmanship seeks the most uncolored sound.

Backlight Research and Innovation

Ergonomically Designed for Eye Comfort

Working with university research teams, BenQ ran extensive studies on the connection between backlighting and eye comfort to pioneer ergonomic solutions built on science. ScreenBar® Halo 2 is the fruit of this work. As the world’s first monitor light bar with a built-in backlight, it ensures the contrast between screen and ambient light stays below the ANSI-recommended 3:1 ratio, delivering lasting visual comfort.

BenQ lamp durability proven through extreme tests including rotations, clamp pressure, temperature, humidity, and 50 cm drop, ensuring lasting performance.

Relentlessly Tested

Verified After Endless Demanding Trials

The entire lamp is also tested to ensure durability. Each unit is put through harsh conditions: tens of thousands of rotations and clamp tests, temperatures and humidity from –20°C to 65°C and 0 to 90%. Even with a 50 cm drop, the lamp is fully functional. This is proof that every lamp is crafted for the real world, because professionals need performance that is proven to last.

For professionals, light is about the precision to keep focus and the durability to earn trust.

BenQ advanced optics solving unseen problems by reducing reflections and glare, creating balanced lighting for eye comfort and sustained focus.

Solving Unseen Problems

While most lamps are only built to be bright, we solve the unseen problems that bother professionals. This includes eliminating reflections via advanced optics, relieving eye-fatigue from glare, and creating balanced lighting for lasting comfort. With light softly blended into the background, professionals can sustain their concentration and focus on the task at hand.

BenQ design philosophy built on innovation, data, and engineering discipline, with tens of thousands of simulations and tests to solve unseen problems.

Our Philosophy

True innovation is never the product of a single idea, instead it is the result of a process of refinement that is born out of time spent, data gathered, and relentless discipline in engineering. In this vein, the creation of our lamp is the result of tens of thousands of simulations, tests, and failures — an enduring commitment to solving problems that cannot be seen.
