The lited pathway® illuminated
strips (A) provide light around the bedroom and bathroom doors to guide home
occupants in the night. Upon entry to the bathroom a main light (B) is
triggered and upon return from the bathroom, a lamp (C) will brighten. The lamp
then dims upon bed entry. These technologies are triggered by a motion sensor
(D). By providing sufficient lighting, the technology aims to assist in the
prevention of falls which research indicates are more probable amongst older
adults when vision is impaired. |
