MelaGen’s high Colour Rendering Index (CRI) is a game-changer in prison settings. Unlike standard lighting that distorts colours and obscures details, MelaGen provides crisp, true-to-life colour representation. This is crucial for:
- Improved Safety: Clearer visuals reduce shadows and enhance visibility, making it easier to monitor inmate activity and detect potential threats.
- Creating a More Dignified Environment: By rendering colours accurately, MelaGen contributes to a more aesthetically pleasing and less dehumanising environment.
- Accurate Assessment of Emotional State: High CRI lighting allows staff to clearly see subtle changes in inmates’ skin tone, facial expressions, and body language, enabling them to identify potential distress, aggression, or health issues more effectively. For example identifying an enraged facial expression from 6m compared to 3m.
As shown in the comparison images below, a high colour rendering highlights the red face and white knuckles in the left image. Low colour rendering does not show as clearly, the extent of this prisoner’s emotions in the right image
