How to make your bedroom smarter: 5 useful gadgets for a comfortable sleep

“Smart” gadgets have surrounded people from almost all sides. We can say that they are in every room and, most importantly, many of them really make people’s lives easier, making it more comfortable and simpler. But previously, such devices did not concern such an area as human sleep, because when we relax, it seems that we need nothing but peace and comfort.

However, the creators of “smart” mattresses and pillows, blankets and calming robots have proven that this is not the case. Today you can find a lot of cool devices on sale, which, it turns out, are very necessary and will definitely take care of a comfortable stay.

Climate Control Blanket

This thing can do a lot of things: refuel itself without human help, cool or heat up, control the quality of sleep and its phases, divide the bed into separate temperature zones. And all this is controlled from a smartphone. Most models are available with built-in memory. This function helps to remember the latest data, as well as the configured settings - all this is entered into the gadget’s database, so at any time you can select the mode that a person needs.

It is important that all electronics are not built into the blanket itself, but are located in a special block that needs to be marked under the bed, and this makes the gadget absolutely harmless when used.

There are many options for smart blankets; you can choose any size for completely different beds.

Pillow with music

For some people, soft, relaxing music before bed is an integral part of life. An unobtrusive melody helps you relax, calm the nervous system, prepare for bed, and speed up falling asleep. But using headphones in this case is not the best option: they get in the way, can fall out at night, and often put pressure on the ear, which causes particular discomfort. That’s why smart pillows with a built-in speaker have long appeared on the market.

Music plays depending on the choice of playlist and its duration, and when finished, it turns off itself.

Anti-snoring device

Snoring is the main enemy of quality sleep, and it brings discomfort not only to the snorer, but also to those who are near him. It is almost impossible to fight him. But there are some smart gadgets that can help you get rid of the problem.

Firstly, this is a special mat that recognizes extraneous intrusive sounds. Depending on the model, it operates differently: as soon as the user begins to snore, it either beeps or sends out a weak vibration.

Typically, such gadgets are easy to customize to your liking: whether the device will respond to the slightest noise or turn on due to serious sound vibrations is a decision only for the owner. It is completely safe and has no electrical parts.

Secondly, smart anti-snoring gadgets can also be in the form of a bracelet. In this case, the biosensor is triggered at the first appearance of snoring sounds and responds to them with low-power electrical signals sent to the upper layer of the skin.These impulses have a configuration that helps increase muscle tone in the nasopharynx area.

Relaxing robot

The robot pillow is especially for those who love soothing hugs. The gadget can also “breathe”. The robot literally puts a person to sleep, recreating the sounds and movements of calm, balanced breathing.

Sensors inside the device easily and quickly read the owner’s rhythm, analyzing what he is doing at a certain moment: sleeping, awake, in a borderline state. Depending on the result, the robot activates the relaxation and calming function, and the person’s breathing rhythm normalizes, so it will be easier to fall asleep.

The robot can play a tune or an audiobook. As a bonus, there is an “artificial dawn” function to make it easier to wake up: as soon as it starts to get light, the robot is softly illuminated.

A variety of products with special quality or unusual abilities fall into this category. They are divided into several groups:

1. With shape memory effect. In essence, this is an ordinary anatomical mattress, but it is able to take the shape of a person’s body when he sleeps. Reduces the load on the spine, promotes good blood circulation and better sleep.
