The right lighting and automation can help to
improve a person’s ability to live a normal life when disabled by the
following:
Low Vision Impaired
Deafness
Immobility
Good Lighting
combined with automation can help the low vision impaired or blind
person in the following ways:
·
Enable an impaired person to turn
on/off lights and appliances with certainty; Lighting Control switches can be
placed in central places and marked in brail or large letters
·
Provide security and provide a sense of
normalcy in the household; Timers can lights and appliances on and off and even
lock doors
·
Enable an impaired person to easily
modify timed lighting events; Lighting control system timers can be modified
with a simple button press to operate under alternate conditions
·
Allow the impaired person to turn
on/off all lights in the house or area with a single button press and make it
unnecessary to travel through the house to accomplish this
·
Help the less impaired person to see
better when performing daily tasks; The proper lights are selected and
correctly placed to reduce glare and improve visual acuity
For Deafness,
lighting control systems can integrate with sensors and use lights to notify
the impaired of alarms, a door or window opening, the door bell or phone
ringing
For those who
are immobile, the use of timers, remotes, and sensors can control lights,
appliances, doors, alarms and turn water on/off.
The
technologies to provide this support are part of standard systems.
