Please list the types and makes that have been rejected, so as to reduce the amount of work the forum has to carry out to effect an anser.

Your question is too open-ended. Recessed can lighting is probably the general type most people would want for a control room, but there are different types available, and what you would use depends a lot on what type of control room you have.

Take a look at this website and maybe it will give you some ideas: http://controlroomdesign.com/id4.html

my first consideration would be what is referred to as light "temperature". the correct lighting should mimic natural sunlight to avoid eye strain.

the usa air force has been doing studies on this subject for decades.

they're available to the public.
