The Evolution of Monitor Lighting

In 2017, BenQ invented the world’s first monitor light bar, ScreenBar, changing the way people light up their workspaces. Unlike ordinary desk lamps, monitor light bars are not intended to illuminate the monitor or keyboard directly, but to reduce eye strain and improve comfort during extended screen use by balancing contrast glare between the monitor and its surroundings.
