Night lamp, lights up to alleviate the absence of the mother towards the son through wireless connection.

Persona: Single mom of small children, age around 32 years, working at night shift.

Challenge: Mom is not at home at the same time as her kids. How can we reduce the emotional impact of this absence?

Solution: Twin night lamps: one is held by the mother at her workplace and the other at the kid’s bedroom. As the mother touches her lamp, the one at her kid’s room lights up and vice-versa. This is thought as a simple connection using IoT.
