Problem

Suboptimal sleeping positions can exacerbate conditions like snoring, sleep apnea, and back pain. Individuals with epilepsy face an elevated risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) when sleeping in a prone position. Traditional hospital beds lack the design to fit seamlessly into a home environment.

Solution

Korus is a self-repositioning mattress designed to automatically adjust a user's sleeping position to promote better sleep quality and safety. The mattress uses a full sensing surface to monitor the user without cameras or wearables, and a high-performance core to continuously learn and precisely reposition the user. Its independent surface dynamics allow for total reshaping, with each segment offering up to 15 inches of independent adjustability. The system is designed to address a range of sleep challenges, from snoring and back pain to repositioning patients into recovery positions to prevent SUDEP.

Target Audience

The primary users are individuals seeking to improve their sleep quality and safety, including those with sleep-related issues, mobility challenges, or a risk of SUDEP, as well as professional caregivers and institutions.
