calmea provides a contactless intelligence layer for the bedding industry, integrating a module into the bed itself to continuously monitor heart rate, breathing, sleep stages, and environmental conditions. The system connects with existing smart home devices to adapt lighting, climate, and wake-up timing without requiring wearables, cameras, or user setup, making sleep tracking effortless and passive.

Problem
Beds remain the last non-connected infrastructure layer of the home, while current sleep tracking relies on wearables that require charging, wearing, and setup. These devices disrupt the sleep they measure alert and only capture partial physiological data, with measurement ceasing when user habits lapse.
Solution
calmea builds the intelligence layer for the bedding industry by embedding a single module directly into the bed structure, where the bed meets the floor. The module delivers continuous, contactless measurement of heart rate, breathing rate, sleep stages, and movements every night by default, requiring no device on the body, no cameras, and no visible technology. It simultaneously monitors environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, air quality, and light to build a complete picture of the sleep environment. The system then adaptively responds by communicating with existing smart home devices to adjust lighting, sounds, climate, and wake-up timing individually for each sleeper, creating a fully passive and integrated sleep experience.
Target Audience
Primary customers are bedding manufacturers and mattress brands seeking to integrate connected intelligence into their products, as well as smart home ecosystems aiming to add sleep-driven automation for end consumers.
Features
- Fully contactless physiological sensing through the bed structure, eliminating the need for wearables or body contact
- No cameras, with sensing operating through the bed itself to preserve privacy and bedroom aesthetics
- Simultaneous monitoring of heart rate, breathing rate, sleep stages, movements, temperature, humidity, air quality, and light
- Integration with existing smart home devices to adapt lighting, climate, sound, and wake-up timing per individual sleeper
- Continuous measurement every night by default with no charging, wearing, or recurring setup required
- One-time setup with the module hidden inside the bed, leaving no visible technology in the bedroom
