Great idea. This is like f.lux for the home. Getting one...

We were inspired by f.flux and have met its creators!

This is awesome - I've long believed that lights could be tailored to align with the body's natural rhythms - now it's here!

To best make use of Ario's benefits, do I need to have one in each room of my house, just my bedroom, or perhaps a main room?

Hi there! I think you should start with one or two lamps in areas you spend the most time in. Be sure to not use harsh white overhead lights at night :)

That's a cool ( or warm ) product! Are you going to release smartphone app on iOS or on Android?

[bing1106 → yjun999]

Yes! We will have web, and native Android and iOS apps available.

Will definitely be getting one! Great idea to help keep me and my family on healthy schedules.

Will I be able too program a weekly schedule like I can with my wifi thermostat?

[bing1106 → Seattle60]

Yes, we plan to do that for the lamp scheduler. People who work hard needs to sleep in on the weekends, right?

Our current code is fixed to daily schedule and that worked well. Pretty soon we will implement the schedule for the whole week.

What's it like having this lamp wake you up?

[bing1106 → Arioda]

It's like waking up next to a large window. At first you would sort of notice the low level amber light and over the period of half an hour to an hour, you would become more awake gradually. It is a nice way to wake up since your body adjusts to the light over a period of time, unlike the sudden ringing from an alarm clock.
