technology seamlessly reads hundreds of measurements per second, tracks
hundreds of thousands of sleep sessions, and analyzes over 4 billion
biometric data points. In the future, Sleep Number’s advanced biometric
sleep tracking technology may potentially:
-
Detect irregular breathing or heart beat patterns, like sleep apnea or
a heart attack – and alert emergency services.
-
Identify the flu or other epidemics as they spread locally, and
communicate this information to health officials and the public.
-
Play a role in monitoring patients outside of a hospital by sharing
the related personal data with your doctor to support a diagnosis.
