SAVE:US is a ceiling light that can turn into a flashlight when disasters hit.
Designed by Jo Joo Hyun, Choi Sung Hun, Jin Min Hee and Park So Jeing, this concept lighting fixture is a handy tool to have around when lighting is limited. It's designed for building corridors so people can get access to visibility during evacuations.
During normal days, the SAVE:US light acts as an average light dispenser but in times of need, it becomes a flashlight to help guide people to safety. To activate it, users have to pull down the electronic torch, which dismantles easily. It's equipped with a GPS system so rescuers can trace people's movements and whereabouts. The light is always ready to go as it charges during non-emergency times.
