I founded a startup, with the idea of making night-time visits to the bathroom safer for the elderly. It uses a modular lighting system that connects to a sensor in the user's bed frame; when the user gets up - the lights turn on, minimizing the chance of a night-time fall. There is also a data layer built in; if the user is out of their bed for too long, a care-giver receives a text-notification. https://www.lunalights.org/
