Multifunction, patient overbed luminaire with ambient and exam modes, night observation mode, and a new-to-world sky mode.
Observe™ is the only luminaire that combines white light (for ambient and exam modes) and a sky scene within a single luminaire. In sky mode, Observe™ provides usable white light and delivers industry-leading lumens per watt (LPW) among fixtures offering multiple lighting modes from one luminaire. As a result, the Nightingale Observe™ has no direct competitor.
Changing the way we light healthcare environments. Exam and ambient modes are expected, but change your perspective with sky mode! Helping patients relax, our Observe™ cloud luminaire uses a unique combination of optics and colour to create a fixture that is switchable between a biophilic sky mode, soothing ambient mode, and exam mode – white light and a sky mode through the same aperture is truly revolutionary. Observe™ cloud takes you away from the present and gives you a view to bright, warm, healthy days ahead!
Unlike traditional sky fixtures where images obscure the light source, soothing ambient and high output exam modes are uncompromised making Observe™ cloud a truly effective and revolutionary luminaire for patients and practitioners.
With Observe™ cloud, Florence Nightingale inspired us to turn our design capabilities towards emulating the natural sky with its clouds and soothing influence. We like to reference a quote from her when we explain the reasoning for the Observe™ cloud fixture, “Therefore, that they should be able, without raising themselves or turning in bed, to see out of window from their beds, to see sky and sunlight at least.” Florence Nightingale – Notes on nursing, what it is and what it is not.

Observe™ cloud meets RP-29 requirements for the patient room with uncompromised lighting for ambient and exam modes. We also created a sunset dimming effect where the sky warms as it dims, creating an increased sensation of natural light and circadian changes. Observe™ is available in 2×2 and 2×4 formats with a dry wall grid adaptor to help create “open sky” arrays and skylights with 4 different sky patterns that are designed for continuity when placed together.
Observe™ cloud is designed to work intuitively with SensorSwitch™ new sealed wall switch and low voltage controller and can be integrated into the patient pillow speaker control handset.
Developing luminaires that deliver beyond the usual expectations of what they should do, making lighting about people, not just spaces, about feeling well, not just treatment. We see a world where we look at light through the prism of patient needs, where lighting is instrumental in providing an overall more comforting and reassuring patient experience – a more caring experience – marked by a sense of wellness, positivity, renewed hope, and greater dignity.
