LED Lighting for Horses

3 Horses see differently Field of vision A horse‘s field of view is typical of a prey animal. The eyes are arranged laterally, thereby enabling almost a full all-round view without having to move the head. The largest part of the field of view is thereby covered by just one eye (two-dimensional vision). Its view tends to be towards the ground. Instinctively, horses want to see what is happening around them. With a clear view of its surroundings, the animal can recognise and assess potential threats. Unobstructed perception helps calm the animals. Even lighting without blinding the animals helps them perceive their environment.
