Lighting that senses life, not just movement
Forget interruptions and complaints: the light stays on as long as someone’s there — even if they’re perfectly still.
Why motion sensors just aren't enough?
In offices, bathrooms, stockrooms or hospitals, motion sensors often fall short:
- Lights turning off while people are still inside
- Interruptions during presentations or focused work
- Frustrated users waving their arms to bring the lights back on
Scene 1 – Office Lights Dimmed
"Focus Interrupted"
Lights drop to their lowest brightness. Only the screen illuminates the programmer’s face. Colleagues wave from afar to trigger the sensor.
Scene 2 – Conference Room Disruption
"Presentation Interrupted"
Lights suddenly switch off mid-presentation. The speaker pauses awkwardly as attendees look around. Someone waves at the sensor just to bring the lights back.
Scene 3 – Restroom Lights Off
"Unexpected Darkness"
Lights turn off while the user stands/sits still, only the phone’s glow illuminates their startled face.
- No affordable solution — you pay more but still don’t get real presence detection.
- Longer hold times — lights stay on in empty rooms, wasting energy and money.
- Hard calibrations — installers spending hours tweaking settings to make it “just acceptable”.
- Promises on paper, frustration on site — datasheets say “presence detection”, reality says “wave your arms”.
- More complaints, more tickets — every blackout becomes a call from a frustrated client.
- Damaged reputation — a premium luminaire judged by its weakest link: the sensor.
