Control an SHX sensory room with the Sensory Cube

The Sensory Cube is a wireless controller that turns interaction into something intuitive and playful. It allows users to activate and control different elements of the space, either individually or simultaneously. Imagine changing the colors of your sensory room lighting simply by rolling a dice. Each face of the cube can be customised with an image, making it easy to design unique sensory sessions and adapt activities to different goals, users, or moments.

Changing the colors of your Luminea devices has never been so fun and educational. This interaction supports the development of skills such as cause-and-effect understanding, joint attention, and fine motor skills.

With the Sensory Cube, you simply roll the cube and watch as the colors of your Luminea lighting devices change. Your bubble tube, fiber optics, ball pool, and LED lights can all light up according to the color shown on the cube. The experience can be further enriched by combining it with the Luminea App, opening up even more possibilities for sensory stimulation and play.

Users actively engage in this immersive experience, encouraging skills such as choice-making, memory, and communication.

Interaction through movement with the Sensory Step 

The Sensory Step is a wireless, color-coded mat that gives you full control of your multisensory room. Like the Sensory Cube, it allows users to control Luminea devices individually or change the audiovisual scenes included in the SHX System.

This mat is ideal for those looking for a simple and versatile setup. Imagine changing the lighting colors with a single step or transforming the room into a new themed environment just by stepping on the mat.

Step on yellow to change the colors of the bubble tube, jump on red to switch the fiber optics or ball pool. Interaction with the Sensory Step places users at the center of the experience, encouraging active participation in sensory stimulation and supporting learning and development.

The Sensory Step allows you to control your multisensory environment using your feet. Simply step on one of the colored buttons and transform the entire room into a new themed environment. Images, videos, sounds, vibrations, and other immersive effects can be triggered just by stepping on the mat—promoting active engagement and the development of social skills, among others.

Bring objects to life with SHX Proximity

SHX Proximity offers an innovative way to interact within a multisensory room. This technology allows real objects to be used to modify the environment and transform the room into a themed space directly linked to those objects.

Simply place any object on the SHX Proximity tray and watch as the entire room comes to life with lighting, images, sounds, vibrations, and more.

SHX Proximity is very easy to use. The system includes cards and stickers that can be programmed to trigger SHX content. Each card or sticker can be customized and linked to specific scenes or activities.

Once the programmed object is placed on the tray, the room delivers the immersive experience you have assigned.

Explore multisensory spaces through objects with the Magic Table

The Magic Table is another exciting way to interact within a multisensory room. By using real objects, users can transform the entire space into a themed environment connected to what they place on the table.

Simply place an object on the Magic Table and the room comes alive. Lights, images, sounds, music, vibrations, and other multisensory effects activate together, creating a fully immersive experience. An object can instantly transport users to the jungle, space, the sea, or any environment you choose.

The system is fully customizable, allowing you to create your own thematic environments using personal images, videos, and sounds.

It also opens up valuable therapeutic and educational opportunities. By associating everyday objects—such as toys, pictures, materials, or cards—with multisensory content, it supports attention, interaction, memory, cause-and-effect understanding, and communication.

Easy to configure and fully integrated into the SHX System, the Magic Table combines tangible interaction with immersive technology to create meaningful, engaging sensory experiences.

Experience control with Button 6

Button 6 is a versatile controller with six buttons that makes interaction with multisensory room elements simple and intuitive.

By touching different buttons, users can activate and change sensory elements such as lighting, colors, or effects, either individually or across the whole room.

It can be used both with Luminea lighting devices and as a controller for the SHX System allowing sessions to be adapted to different needs and objectives. Its flexible configuration makes it easy to adjust how the environment responds, supporting clear, accessible, and meaningful interaction.

With Button 6, users gain precise and adaptable control over the sensory space, encouraging participation and cause-and-effect understanding.

In summary

There are multiple control methods that make it possible to interact with an SHX Sensory Room in meaningful and accessible ways. By adapting how people engage with the space, these tools support learning, communication, and sensory regulation across a wide range of needs.

Sensory systems are the first bridge to the world around us: through sight, hearing, touch, smell, and movement we build our identity, understand our needs, and begin to make sense of experiences.

In the early years of life, every experience leaves a deep mark: a sound that sparks curiosity, a light that surprises, a touch that soothes. It is through the senses that children start to discover the world, building their identity and learning how to relate to their surroundings.

Sensory maturation at this stage happens quickly and forms the foundation of all future development: from motor to cognitive, emotional, and social skills. Providing environments rich in appropriate stimuli means opening pathways to growth, autonomy, and well-being.

Discover, explore, grow: The magic of Multisensory Rooms

Multisensory rooms are created with this purpose: to allow children to experience primary and stimulating activities that require no prior knowledge — only the desire to perceive, explore, and be amazed.

In SHX multisensory rooms, children can engage with basic stimuli in an accessible way. A newborn cradled in a fetal bag finds calm and relief; a crawling child heads toward the ball pool; a button that changes the colors of the entire room sparks surprise and curiosity.

These accessible environments, rich in possibilities, support the maturation of sensory systems, strengthen the relationship with the environment, and allow a better understanding of each child’s preferences and abilities.

The added value of Qinera’s technology (SHX) lies in the ability to adapt and control stimuli: lights, images, sounds, and vibrations can be adjusted according to the child’s cognitive skills and developmental stage, creating meaningful and personalized experiences.

The senses as a driver of learning

As an occupational therapist with years of experience, I know that every motor milestone — holding the head up, sitting, crawling, walking — is born from a deep motivation: the desire to explore, to discover, to feel.

SHX multisensory rooms offer a wide variety of stimuli that spark curiosity and motor motivation. A vibrating bed synchronized with music helps the child perceive their own body and promotes relaxation. A luminous sphere that switches on and off stimulates the urge to move. A snuggle bag provides vestibular experiences that contribute to calmness and well-being.

Each object becomes an opportunity for motor and communicative learning.

Movement, in these rooms, is experienced as a need, a source of pleasure, and a path to discovery. Thanks to the safety of the spaces and the variety of surfaces, the child can explore without fear, finding in the multisensory environment a context of inclusion that also embraces those with motor delays, hypotonia, or insecurity.

From perception to action

Perception is the foundation of all learning. By following an object with their eyes, turning toward a sound, reacting to touch, or discovering scents and textures, the child builds their first cognitive connections.

Over time, perception turns into action: recognizing, imitating, anticipating, remembering, solving.

SHX multisensory rooms represent a true laboratory of integrated perceptions. Fiber optics, tactile discs, sound effects, ball pools, and sensory stories create immersive scenarios that stimulate multiple senses in a coherent way, reinforcing learning. With a simple switch or a tablet, a child can change the color of the entire room, understanding the cause-and-effect relationship.

Through these experiences, attention, memory, and problem-solving skills are developed in a context that combines play and therapy.

Why SHX Rooms make the difference

Multisensory rooms are therapeutic and educational tools that support overall development in early childhood. Thanks to Qinera’s interactive SHX system, each stimulus can be adapted to the child’s needs, transforming the room into a safe, stimulating, and motivating environment.

Whether it is a newborn in need of early stimulation, a child with motor disabilities, or a young explorer full of curiosity, the multisensory environment becomes a valuable ally. SHX multisensory rooms provide a unique context where play turns into learning, perception into action, and development finds fertile ground to grow strong and secure.
