O Sleep, O Gentle Sleep: Xiaomi Unveils a New Sleep Tracker — Lunar Smart Sleep

Sleep is often not taken seriously by many people. At least, we hope, you acknowledge that sleep makes you feel better and that going without it makes you feel worse. Believe it or not, sleep is something we can actually control. Our activities and emotions during the day and before bedtime affect its quality more than you might think. Xiaomi again is helping out with a new gadget, Lunar Smart Sleep Sensor that analyzes your sleep patterns and shares important information you can use to improve your sleep.

​

Lunar Smart Sleep Sensor is equipped with a Triple sound button, which activates nice music to de-stress you and encourage sleep. This is a great solution for those who restlessly turn over in bed trying to sleep after a hard day.

The sensor works in all directions to get the most out of your sleep and feed you back with an accurate statistics. All the reports are sent to a mobile app. To launch it you need to have a requisite mobile platform — Android or iOS.

It is not harmful to be kept close to your body during sleep as it does not emit radiation or electromagnetic waves. That is why the best placing for it would be under your pillow.

Previously Xiaomi introduced a wearable health and fitness tracker — Amazfit Arc. It deals with many other exciting things aside from monitoring sleep and comes in a form of a bracelet.
