Lumos - A Healing Environment for Hospitals
Made by Sriram Venkiteswaran and Neeraj Talukdar
Lumos is a responsive lighting system to be used in combination with medical devices in patient hospital rooms. Utilizing input from pulse sensors and the time of day, the lighting system adapts to the patient’s physical needs. Lumos can unobtrusively create a calming light environment when the patient is stressed, or if the child wishes to engage with Lumos, it can interactively generate a dynamic light show to provide positive distraction for the child, helping to ease a stressful experience.
