Customer Challenge
Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 team members spend long hours in the windowless control room of the simulator in Brackley, analyzing car data. This environment demands continuous alertness, exceptional teamwork, and sustained high performance to achieve optimal results. In a recent interview, George Russell expressed the impact NatureConnect has made.
Solution
NatureConnect by Signify helped the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 team to turn the windowless room into a space with a daylight experience. The NatureConnect skylights are indistinguishable from a real window and provide a view to the sky. The light recipes with high melanopic levels, elevate performance of people, and offer functional lighting. Impressed by its impact, George Russell expressed interest in expanding the use of NatureConnect within the team.
