WARNING
Epileptic seizures or loss of awareness caused by certain light patterns
or flashing lights
A very small portion of the population (approx. 1 person out of 4000) have
a condition which may cause them to experience epileptic seizures or have
momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of flashing
lights and patterns or when playing video games. Certain conditions may
induce previously undetected epileptic symptoms even in persons who
have no history of prior seizures or epilepsy. The measurements with struc‐
tured light show a significantly lower contrast. Even though it cannot be
guaranteed to a 100% that an epileptic seizure will not occur, GOM esti‐
mates the risk to be low. Until now, we do not know of a single case in
connection with GOM sensors.
▶
If you or anyone in your family has experienced symptoms linked to
an epileptic condition (e.g. a seizure or loss of awareness) due to
flashlights, do not look directly on certain light patterns or flashing
lights of the sensor!
▶
If you experience any symptoms, switch off the sensor or leave the
room!
