PerCiLight

PerCiLight is a holistic project from analysis, to development and test. It includes the following milestones

• Co-creation, analysis and design
• Development of PerCiLight’s Lighting system
• Implementation of the digital user interface
• Testing, demonstration and evaluation at Bauneparken Nursing home
It is a collaborative project with a strong consortium set-up with both test site and companies with complementing competencies – from extensive experience within circadian lighting to nursing homes, expertise in lighting design, luminaire design, user interface, software and hardware.

Objectives:

PerCiLight is an international project that takes circadian lighting to the next level. With the existing, evidence-based Chromaviso Chroma Zenit solution as the starting point, we will develop a more personal and flexible circadian lighting. PerCiLight will be a digital and integrative solution with the aim to improve health, sleep and wellbeing among the individual elderly with dementia and their caretakers. PerCiLight will ensure a homely atmosphere and a user-friendly interface. Bauneparken Nursing home in Denmark will implement the solution in 16 apartments and evaluate the functionality and effects on both residents and staff.

Expected Results and Impact:

PerCiLight will improve quality of life and impact the users:

Elderly with dementia: Ensure a stable circadian rhythm, improve sleep and overall mental state, reduce fatigue, night activity and accidents.
Caretakers: Supporting the night shifts health and work conditions with blue-free night light, improve well-being, reduce stress and improve the work environment.

Nursing home organisation: Will offer better, personalised care and improved sense of home. Improved operational efficiency and quality and higher employee satisfaction.
