Luminous patterns of firefly were experimentally investigated to evaluate the healing effect by using an appropriate statistical analysis and an image processing. A robot modeled for the firefly was further developed with the aid of the luminous patterns. This study is for fabricating a hospice space by which people can be healed from many kinds of stress due to various modern human activities. It is revealed from a series of measurements that 1/f^n fluctuation modes are also included in the lumminous pattern of firefly robot and that there is a possibility that the luminescence plays a significant role in healing people. Because, we have always been feeling that the luminescence is so attractive from ancient times.
