LUCI™ is the world’s first intelligent operator fit-for-duty system — designed to help companies reduce risks from drowsiness and distraction Creative Coefficient partnered with Six Safety Systems to create Luci, an innovative safety device that blends practical engineering with human-centered industrial design. The goal: deliver a compact, robust tool that provides clear, reliable protection in high-stakes industrial settings. As a full-service product design studio, our team guided the project from early concept sketches through detailed prototyping and final production support. Along the way, we translated Six Safety Systems’ vision for smarter, more intuitive safety solutions into a durable product that meets rigorous industrial safety standards while remaining simple to operate. Luci’s thoughtful form factor, rugged construction, and straightforward interface demonstrate how hardware product development and industrial design services come together to support real people in real-world conditions — where clarity and reliability matter most. The result reinforced Six Safety Systems’ reputation for trustworthy, next-generation safety technology and expanded their product portfolio with a solution built to perform when it counts.
Behind the Design, Obstacles to Innovation:
Our work with Six Safety Systems required solving complex challenges at the intersection of industrial design services and hardware product development. Each obstacle became an opportunity to prove how thoughtful design can deliver safer, smarter equipment. Robustness: Industrial environments demand durability. We engineered Luci’s housing and components to withstand constant exposure to heat, dust, and contaminants, ensuring long-term reliability in the toughest conditions. Accurate Sensing in Variable Conditions: Operator states like drowsiness and distraction vary with light, weather, and individual behaviors. Our design and testing cycles optimized sensor placement and calibration to ensure accuracy across environments. Seamless Integration: Safety devices only work if they fit into real workflows. Luci was designed for plug-and-play integration with existing equipment, minimizing downtime and keeping operations running smoothly. Clear Alerts Without Distraction: We created an interface that’s unmistakable yet unobtrusive. Operators receive clear alerts that improve safety without introducing new sources of distraction. Compliance and Safety Standards: Luci was developed to meet stringent industrial safety requirements and corporate HSE policies, positioning Six Safety Systems as a leader in next-generation safety technology.
