natural lighting

I'm curious if there's any in the forum that know about the potential for using a natural light spectrum within a stereoscopic device. Could we potentially simulate sunlight closely enough so that it wouldn't just feel more natural, but also have at least some small health benefits? As opposed to messing with your circadian rhythms and who knows what else, as we do now with these more artificial light sources.

    The Rift already has an OLED screen, and so maybe it is already more natural than older computer screens? Here's a paragraph about this technology on LG's site, although theirs may be different from what Oculus uses...

    "LG Chem OLEDs have spectral power distributions closest to sunlight, and people feel emotionally comfortable under OLED light. Therefore, OLEDs are ideal for places where natural light is unavailable, or for places where good quality light is needed."
