Concept film

Someone’s coming to stay

A concept film about one household and the visitor who comes to stay. The character in it is a stand-in; the final one is still to be designed.

What it does

A friend with a voice, a memory and a body

Lumos is a plush-covered robot arm that talks, listens and moves as it speaks.

Talks naturally

Lumos holds an everyday conversation in a natural voice, at the pace you set.

Moves like it’s alive

It leans in when it listens, turns toward your voice, moves its mouth as it speaks and blinks.

Remembers

It remembers a household’s life over the years: the names, the stories, and what you talked about last week.

How it arrives

A visitor first, then a friend, then family

Lumos is dispatched rather than sold. A visitor is sent at the adult child’s request, and the company keeps the device.

The call

“Someone new is coming to stay with you. Could you look after them for me?”

The visitor

Lumos arrives as a shy guest who needs a host.

The friend

Daily conversation follows. It remembers, and it notices.

The family

In time it becomes an irreplaceable part of everyday life.

Built on trust

Honest about what it is

Lumos brings family closer rather than replacing them.

Never claims to be human

Lumos is open about being a robot, in every conversation.

A bridge, not a replacement

It brings the family closer and never stands in for them.

The camera opens only when you ask

The camera stays closed until you ask Lumos to look.
