A system, method and tangible computer readable storage medium for receiving, from each of a plurality of sensors disposed in one of a plurality of patient rooms in a hospital ward, data relating to a corresponding patient housed in the one of the plurality of patient rooms, receiving data relating to an output destination, generating a prioritized list including one or more of the plurality of the patients based on the data relating to the plurality of patients and the data relating to the output destination and sending the list to the output destination.

Method and system for determining patient status

A processing module () is disclosed, which is configured to receive usage data for at least one lighting device (-) and on basis of the usage data determine a lighting device settings profile for the at least one lighting device (-).

Light scene creation or modification by means of lighting device usage data

A configurable controller for a lighting arrangement or assembly is adapted to control or change an output characteristic of the lighting arrangement in response to a user input received at a user interface. The configurable controller limits the amount to which a user input at the user interface may adjust the output characteristics by storing a range of selectable or presently available values for the output characteristic. This range of selectable values is adjustable based upon a configuration input received from a remote device at a communication unit.

Controller for a lighting arrangement

An apparatus for providing settings of a control system () for implementing a spatial distribution of perceptible output in a physical space (-), which control system () is configured to control at least one output device (--) positioned in that physical space (-) and to maintain in memory () data (-) representative of locations associated with the respective output devices (--) in the physical space (-) relative to a reference point (), includes an input device () for obtaining user input pertaining to at least one location associated with one of the output devices (--). The settings are based on data representative of the user input. The input device () includes at least one component () for manipulation by a user to position at least a first point () on the component () and a sensor arrangement () arranged to provide output for detecting an angular co-ordinate of the first point () about at least one axis through a second point () of the input device ().

Apparatus and method for providing settings of a control system for implementing a spatial distribution of perceptible output

The invention relates to a method and to an apparatus that enables the ambience of e.g. hospital rooms to adapt according the scheduled or non-scheduled activities throughout the day. The ambience generated by lights, sound devices, image, movie displays and other devices is controlled by an ambience controller () in dependence of day phases defined by a patient's day schedule or in dependence of other non-scheduled phases which may have been initiated in dependence of a trigger signal () generated in response to activities such as the entering of a caterer.

Adaptive control of ambience settings

Methods and apparatus for configuration of a physical control panel (). In some embodiments at least one property () of a physical control panel () is detected at a mobile device (); a plurality of events () that can be generated by the physical control panel () are identified; one or more control actions () are associated with one or more of the identified events, at the device (); and those associations are transmitted () to a controller ().

Methods and apparatus for configuration of control devices

A method for routing a medical alert to a selected staff member-, the method comprising receiving an alert signal generated by an alert generation device-, obtaining the current location and identity of multiple staff members from a location tracking system-configured to track the locations of the multiple staff members, upon receiving the alert signal, selecting from the multiple staff members a selected staff member by at least determining that the distance between a location of the alert generation device and the location of the selected staff member is shorter than the distance between the location of the alert generation device and the location of at least one of the multiple staff members other than the selected staff member, and sending an alert signal to an individually addressable mobile device associated with the selected staff member.

Device and method for routing a medical alert to a selected staff member

A lighting system () comprising a central lighting device (), at least one satellite lighting device (), and a controller () for adjusting light settings, is provided. The controller is arranged for transmitting, in response to a user request (), an association request over a first communication link (). The central lighting device is arranged for receiving the association request and re-transmitting the association request over a second communication link by means of coded light (). The satellite lighting device is arranged for transmitting, in response to receiving the association request, its identifier to the central lighting device. The identifier is only transmitted if an association process is enabled. The association process is enabled, in response to a user request, during a limited time period. The central lighting device is further arranged for associating, in response to receiving the identifier, the satellite lighting device with the central lighting device.

Setting up hybrid coded-light&#x2014;ZigBee lighting system

A lighting system comprises a set of light sources and a remote control unit. The remote control unit comprises a user interface through which a user may identify an area in an image and a light source. The identified image area is linked with the light source and color information of the identified image area is transmitted to the light source. The light source is thereby enabled to adapt its light output to the color information. A user is thereby enabled to pick the color to be outputted by a light source by selecting an area in an image displayed on the remote control unit. The remote control unit may be part of a mobile telephone, a tablet computer, an electronic photo frame, or a television screen.

Remote control of light source

A lighting device () comprising a base part () with a first magnetic material, and a second part () is disclosed. The second part comprises a light source (), and a nonmagnetic shell () defining an essentially closed cavity, the light source () and the nonmagnetic shell being in a fixed positional relationship, wherein the essentially closed cavity encloses a second magnetic material () displaceable therein. This provides a lighting device () in which the user may readily position the light source () with a large degree of freedom.
