Lora the intelligent light.

I'm happy to show you Lora, the intelligent light that adjusts to your needs and activities. I have spent the last 2.5 years developing her. 
Let Lora take control and adjust the light to fit your needs and activities. No matter is you want to stay focused during work or wind down in the evening after a full day of work, Lora will help you to get the perfect lighting.
Control at your fingertips. 
Smart home devices are indeed 'smart', but only when your smartphone is at hand. Lora's integrated touchscreen changes that to save your time. Change between settings, modes or simply adjust the brightness or hue with a light tap. See relevant informations of your surrounding or smart home. 
Whenever you have your smartphone at hand, you can make precise adjustments using Lora's app. Define your personalized lighting schedules, try out effects or find the perfect atmosphere for your occasion. 
Lora's magic.
Lora uses her integrated sensors to continuously adjust the lighting according to her sourrundings. This ensures a natural feeling and a perfectly lit environment for your needs and activities.
Lora utilizes 4 different types of white LEDs to achieve the most natural feeling throughout the day. Ranging from a cozy 1800K, resembling candlelight, to a vibrant 6500K, mimicking daylight. Lora uses Samsung’s LM302N series of LEDs, which is specially designed to support your bodies natural rhythm.
Lora uses individual controllable RGB LEDs so you can get what you really want. No matter if you want that cozy look, matching effects for your party or interesting animations to dive deep into your board game, Lora got you covered.
To make Lora intelligent and independent, I integrated light, gesture, temperature and air quality sensors. These help Lora to sense her environment and adjust the lighting to match your needs or remind you to open a window once in a while. Additionally you can use the gesture recognition as a "dirty hands" mode for situations, when touching things is not an option. 
Your home, your rules.
The matter standard is the perfect foundation for Lora because it is relatively new, robust and supported by many smart home vedors like Apple home, Google home, Amazon Alexa and so on. 
Lora will be easy to set up with your normal Wi-Fi and will integrate seamlessly into your system of choice. And in case you have no wifi at all, basic functionality will be available even without a connection to the internet.
Made to last, designed for repair.
Electronic waste is already a huge problem on our planet and every day there are thousands of products being disposed of in landfills instead of being repaired. With Lora I want to change the problem of single use lighting systems and thereby help to reduce electronic waste altogether. I want to empower everybody to repair their electronics if they want to and feel comfortable with it. 
Lora is designed to last a long time, but if something stops working like it is supposed to, it can easily be replaced. LED modules are magnetically connected to the power modules for effortless repairs or upgrades. All other parts are connected by simple pin and headers and there are no proprietary screws or other non-sense.
In addition to her modular design, Lora's body and PCBs are made from aluminium to provide a highly efficient heat dissipation and to ensure the longevity of the used LEDs.
Lora probably won't need a repair for a long time but if something happens, there is a plan. In case something breaks, you can simply order a replacement part or get one for free if your Lora is still within the 2 year warranty. 
After you replaced your part, you can send back the old part to get a discount on your purchase. After that it can be inspected, repaired or properly recycled. 
For each possible repair, there will be a comprehensive repair guide, so there is no guesswork on how to fix Lora.
Good light is all you need.
Light plays a crucial role in our lives, even though we don't really notice it. Light helps us to sync our internal clock, creating our day and night rhythm. It also impacts our mood and perception of the surrounding world. Last but not least light affects our mental and physical health, ranging from depression and anxiety to an increased diabetes and cancer risk when used incorrectly.
Lora is here to support your overall health and well being by providing the perfect light at the right time of the day, this will help you stay focused or to wind down after a long and exhausting day. 
Hope you like it! 
Lora will be soon on Kickstarter
