How does Stephen Wang’s award-winning work advance our understanding of IoT in managing circadian rhythms through interactive design?

The 'Sunflower', an innovative interactive lamp, has been recognized with the A'Design Award in the Wellness, Health Promotion, and Preventive Care Design category. This health IoT product was developed under the Research Centre for Future (Caring) Mobility, led by Prof. Stephen Wang. The lamp is designed with a focus on the circadian rhythm, monitoring the user's lifestyle and engaging them through its creature-like movements. This unique approach offers an organic and interactive experience that is truly novel.

The team behind this project includes Jiajuan Li, Stephen Jia WANG, Yangwu CAI, Yanjie Zhan, Sein JEONG, ZhengTao Ma, Sark XING, and Le FANG. This project is an example of the duet of design and technology, where health and wellbeing are enhanced through the integration of IoT, resulting in engaging user experiences.
