Luzi – The Perfect Bedside Companion?
After smartphones and smartwatches, it is but natural for the ‘smart’ technology to be applied to several other aspects of life, a bedside lamp being one of them. Christened as Luzi, it is a responsive gadget meant to help people who need to count sheep while going off to sleep so that they slip into a blissful slumber and wake up in the morning completely freshened.
Designed as a night-stand, Luzi comes equipped with multiple USB ports, a charging point for Apple Watch and a touchscreen display featuring a clock that can be personalized as per your tastes. Although there is no mention from the manufacturer’s end as regards the type of screen being used, presence of a sensor to control the intensity of ambient lighting is indicative of an LCD display. Users also have to choice of opting for a charging base that would be wireless and would be supportive of PMA and Qi charging standards.
So how does Luzi help its user?
As a smartlamp it has been designed to perform a number of different functions, primary amongst them being to ensure that you sleep well throughout the night. Assuming that you have just crept into bed after a hard day’s work, the first thing that you can do with Luzi is to position it at an angle wherein the clock would fall into your direct line of vision. Next it is time to adjust the light emitted by the device to a soothing ambience which is bright enough to ensure that the room remains well-lit while refraining from hurting your eyes or senses.
There is a provision of adjusting the sound too as per your liking where the device would emit a lullaby, instrumental music, meditational sounds or something else that you might prefer. Before going off to sleep, everyone makes it a point to put their gadgets on charge and with Luzi this is taken care of courtesy of four USB portals. Therefore, your phone, tab, smartwatch and any other gadget will be charging next to you throughout the night while you sink into a dreamless slumber.
If you are one of those people who like to talk before they drop off to sleep, Luzi could be the ideal companion that you might be yearning for. Designed to respond to your voice, all you have to do is command and Luzi will spring into action by switching off the lights, commencing the sleep cycle, activating the alarm and so on. Before, you realise, you will have dozed off into deep sleep only to open your eyes as the first rays of a new day kiss your face. Over a period of time as you get used to Luzi, not only do you stand to benefit from the improved quality of sleep but also the optimal number of hours.

Incorporating Luzi into your life accrues several advantages as claimed by the makers, primary amongst which is its positive impact on your health. Thanks to personalization features, Luzi offers a customized solution that brings about a good night’s sleep and thus has a positive bearing on your health. Owing to the provision of multiple USB ports, Luzi acts as a one-stop shop for charging several devices simultaneously and this implies that you can free your bedside table of all the clutter that might have been forming due to wires and charging devices.
Joel Burke, CEO and co-founder of Luzi says:
“Luzi is the most advanced smart lamp ever made. Studies have found a direct correlation between the quality of one’s sleep with various health problems. Our expectation is that Luzi will help to remedy these issues and promote better sleep habits.”
Given that Luzi’s campaign is based on crowd-funding, the objective is to raise $50,000 and the good news is that more than one-third of the amount is already in the kitty. The starting point has been placed at $269 and the number of backers has been limited to 100, which implies that whoever is truly interested needs to hurry.
It was in April, 2015 that the first prototype of Luzi was released and this was followed by kick-off of the Indiegogo campaign two months later in June, 2015. November 2015 is the deadline when the designing blueprint of the product is slated for being completed and beta test is scheduled for December, 2015. Production has been scheduled to commence in January 2016 and the first orders are likely to be shipped out in March, 2016.
What renders Luzi particularly attractive is the feature wherein the user can customize the display settings as per his choice, meaning it is not just the look and the clock-face but also details like temperature, day, date, weather report and so on that can be changed. An added advantage accrues from the fact that this device can be integrated with SmartHome applications as also fitness bands.
So with Luzi by your side, going off to sleep and waking up to a new day are gentle and soothing not to mention a true pleasure.
