Intelligent lighting at the EHPAD Les Eglantines

The EHPAD Les Eglantines is benefiting from the innovative Dalkia Smart Lighting Services solution for its lighting, with the implementation of a geolocation communication system via light, based on LiFi technology. Dalkia is deploying the Voice on Light or VoLTM concept developed by LiFiNEO to broadcast information through lighting. A new system of more efficient LEDs equips the healthcare facility. The luminous messages broadcasted are detected thanks to badges equipped with ASCA^® photovoltaic films. The solar films are used as sensors. They are highly sensitive to light and can detect even very small changes in lighting. The film is thin and flexible and fits perfectly on the compact access badges of the nursing staff.

The intelligent communication network enables the deployment of specific digital services with features that improve the comfort of caregivers and patients. The lighting is adapted according to the presence of the teams or the external luminosity, generating up to 80% energy savings. Staff can also consult patient files instantly and securely when their badges are located at the entrance to the rooms. Also equipped with accelerometers, the badges detect falls or accidents and quickly alert nearby staff through the lighting network. The result is greater comfort within the establishment.
