Abstract

Disclosed is a method for improving a lighting condition with a wearable computing device (100), the method comprising determining (302) an actual light condition with an optical sensor arrangement (114, 220); determining (303) the user activity with a further sensor arrangement (116, 230) for determining a user activity, said user activity being associated with a suitable lighting condition for performing said activity; comparing (304), on the wearable computing device, the actual light condition with the suitable light condition; and generating (306, 406) a signal with the wearable device if the actual light condition deviates from the suitable light condition. A computer program product including computer program code for implementing this method when executed on a wearable computing device (100), a wearable computing device (100) including the computer program product and a lighting system kit including a lighting system (200) and the wearable computing device (100) are also disclosed.
