Summary
This paper discusses the development of an interactive phototherapy system that can be integrated into architectural design to improve health and wellness, with a focus on improving patient compliance to phototherapy regimens, improving the accuracy of health monitoring, and expanding the functionality of architectural spaces.
Categories
Phototherapy: The paper discusses the development of an interactive phototherapy system, its implementation in architectural design, and its potential benefits for health and wellness.
Healthcare innovation: The paper proposes that the interactive phototherapy system could contribute to healthcare innovation by providing a non-invasive monitoring and treatment method that can be deployed outside of clinical environments.
Patient recovery and healing: The paper suggests that the interactive phototherapy system could improve patient recovery and healing by increasing patient compliance to phototherapy regimens.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses how the interactive phototherapy system can be integrated into architectural design, and how this could expand the functionality of architectural spaces.
Well-being: The paper suggests that the interactive phototherapy system could improve overall well-being by promoting health and wellness.
