The work from home (WFH) shift that has taken place over the course of the past year has seen many professionals transforming their home into a makeshift office, which is being supported by products like the 'On Air' smart status light. The smart light draws inspiration from the lights that are often found in recording studios to prevent people from being disrupted and is designed to be connected with your choice of device. This will automatically trigger the light on and prevent a person from being bothered by a family member when they are in an important meeting or video call.
The 'On Air' smart status light is the design work of Josh Mosier and can be set to start when programs like Zoom are launched to automatically put a focus on privacy.
