Software: F.lux by Stereopsis

    // February 27th, 2010 // View Comments // Technology



    Apparently someone else thinks they’re fluxy. “F.lux” by Stereopsis is a unique piece of software by virtue of its sympathy for the headache-inducing aggravation that is eye strain. The program operates by adjusting the tint of your computer screen to accommodate the current lighting of the sun. At noon your screen is bright – just like sunlight – but as nighttime approaches your screen is gradually enveloped in a subtle red tint.


    You may be thinking: “What’s the big deal? I like my computer bright. I can see it that way!” But what about that last minute procrastination binge which becomes a long miserable night in front of the computer screen? Come morning – unless you were using the F.lux – your eyes are probably going to be a bit upset with you. The program, furthermore, is as user friendly as they come: “Tell f.lux what kind of lighting you have, and where you live. Then forget about it. F.lux will do the rest, automatically.”


    F.lux supports Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, and is available for download on the the Stereopsis website. Our question for you: does F.lux by Stereopsis do justice to the real Flux?
