New feature launch: Daylight Wellness Lighting

W H A T : The Daylight feature brings outdoor lighting cycles indoors for healthier living. A part of the Biophilia movement is to make indoor spaces healthier. This automates the cycles of light throughout the day: warm/dim to wake and wind down, and brighter/cooler for activity and concentration. H O W : 1- Research and Product Discovery: learning about the science behind circadian lighting for wellness, and how it affects the hormones in the body that prompt awakeness, alertness, relaxation, and tiredness. 2- Panel discussions with lighting designers about their high-end lighting clients, quantitative interviews with lighting home-owner customers, and Interviewing lighting installers as we explored features their customers want. 3- Layout design in mobile and tablet views, user-testing for task completion, comprehension and design UI preference. Design iterations and more user testing. Customers and installers wanted an easy, simplified customer-facing view, but on the back-end, there is a lot of customization that our installers can fine-tune.

Information Popover - describing the feature

User testing was done on the Title/wording Daylight and comprehension of the feature.

Daylight Cycle - Follow the Sun

Use Case 1: Have your lights follow the sun (based on your geo-location), set it, and forget it.
Interrupt the cycle or turn off the light, and it will return to its place in the cycle after you cycle it back on.

Daylight Cycle - Extended Day

Use Case 2: Extend your days. Imagine the long dark nights of the high northern or southern hemispheres. A customer can customize their times to have natural cycles of long summer days indoors. So cool!

Daylight Setting

Follow the sun based on your geo-location, or set your own time.

Customize: Choose which lights are in the Daylight Cycle

(Color Capable and Tunable White Lights)
