    21 - GuestTalk - Circadian Lighting - Michael Meeneghan

    Welcome back to SMARTcast! Today we're investigating one of the most health-beneficial, fascinating, and frankly most overlooked aspects of how we design and inhabit our spaces: circadian lighting...the kind of light that doesn't just illuminate a room, but works in harmony with your biology. Joining us for the first time is Chris Ramsbottom, the newest member of our SMART Technology Advisers team. Chris is a lighting design and control specialist with over 25 years in the industry, a background in electrical engineering, and a career spanning some of the most technically complex yacht and high-end residential projects around. Our special guest is Michael Meeneghan, founder of MP Tech, who brings a remarkable journey to the conversation: from the Royal Navy to prime residential systems integration, and on into the world of superyachts. Michael's company is doing something genuinely important - bringing science-backed, health and wellbeing lighting design to both the marine and residential worlds, for owners, guests, and crew alike. With Chris's technical rigour and Michael's hands-on experience at sea and ashore, it's a brilliant conversation.  Enjoy!
