A longer exposure to blue light has negative effects on organisms, therefore we present an optical assembly based on a hexagonal design with blue LED light for homogeneous irradiation of cultures of Drosophila melanogaster, which has a variability range of illuminance controlled by the change of local current, useful for the evaluation of various factors under this parameter.
