Luna Lights
Seed Round in 2016
Luna Lights, Inc. is a Chicago-based company that specializes in developing innovative solutions to enhance night-time safety for senior citizens and reduce fall risks. The company’s primary product features an ultra-thin pressure sensor integrated with a monitoring system and portable lights. When a user gets out of bed, the sensor activates small, wireless lights throughout the home, providing guidance to help prevent falls. Once the user returns to bed, the lights automatically turn off. Additionally, Luna Lights' system collects data on the frequency and duration of night-time movements, allowing caregivers to receive notifications if an older adult remains out of bed for an extended period. This functionality enables caregivers to track trends in nighttime activity and identify individuals who may be at higher risk for falls, thereby fostering a safer living environment for seniors. Luna Lights operates as a subsidiary of Sentrics.
