Plan of the Lighting System
FUNCTION: To provide lighting for:1.Nurses & doctors: spot lights provide focal, clear, and intense lights for bedside procedures that require high visual acuity. 2.Staff: Full-spectrum lights provide general diffuse lights for various clinical procedures and room maintenance.3.Patient: Multi-color LED lights create a more relaxing environment and provide positive distractions while in waiting.
DESIGN: 1.Spot lights: Located on three different panels:o Panel A: provide lights for the patient’s head and neck region.o Panel B: provide lights for the thorax and abdomen region.o Panel C: provide lights for the legs. Lights on each panel can be activated independently from other panels. 2.Full-spectrum lights: Independently controlled the other lighting components3. Multi-color LED lights: Remotely controlled by patient Can change into 7 different colors 3 color changing modes These lights cannot be turned on when the spot lights are in used and vice versa. This prevents distraction to the working staff, nurses, and doctors.
