Abstract

See full text

The present invention comprises a lighting apparatus main body having a reflecting surface, a main light source arranged in the reflecting surface of the lighting apparatus main body, a sub-light source which is arranged at the lighting apparatus main body and illuminates the neighborhood of the main light source directly, and a control circuit which controls the main light source and the sub-light source. Since the lighting apparatus illuminates downward with a direct illumination of the main light source and an indirect illumination of the sub-light source, the glare of the main light source is reduced.
