Field notes
OpenNEXEN also presents LUMINA3ai, a free beta study partner for Cambodia's Baccalaureate II math exam, with English and Khmer input, past papers dated 2014–2024, generated exercises, and revision plans. The site reports 3,000+ students reached and selection to present at a 2025 Cambodia EdTech Conference. Its status labels distinguish the lighting project's modeled runtime and planned solar hardware from what has been built or measured.
