Problem
Many people struggle to achieve sufficient deep sleep, leading to daytime fatigue, reduced cognitive performance, and reliance on medication or supplements. Traditional sleep aids often lack personalization and can have side effects, making it difficult to consistently improve sleep quality.

By detecting sleep stages in real time, the mask delivers subtle, non‑invasive stimuli to encourage transitions into deeper sleep phases. This closed‑loop approach aims to increase the amount of deep sleep a user experiences each night without pharmacological intervention. The device is designed for nightly use, integrating into existing bedtime routines and syncing data to a companion app for tracking sleep metrics over time. Users receive personalized feedback and recommendations to further optimize their sleep hygiene.
