Today, the group completed initial research and figured out how DIALux works. Cooper Lighting lili was tested in the room simulation, because it uses LEDs and can function as direct and indirect light.
The group also formulated ideas of adding UV light to the LEDs, because it creates Vitamin D, which will boost the health of the residents. Too much of it can be a carcinogen, but in small amounts, it has been proven to be healthy. A UV function is proposed that only operates for 15 minutes a day, in the middle of the day when the light is the greatest in the room.
The group will visit St. Francis Country House on Friday, May 4th, to get a feel for the home and to take measurements of the rooms.
