How it works:

• The Silent Night pillow comes with three force sensors to track your sleep posture. Based on this information, it adjusts the height of different sections of the pillow with servo motors to enhance your comfort. The pillow also comes equipped with temperature, humidity, and light sensors so that it's aware of any environmental disruptions throughout the night.

Airway collapse (and therein snoring) often occurs when lying down face-up, so the servo motors adjust the pillow height to suggest the user to sleep on their sides more often. With a built-in microphone, it detects when you are snoring and will change the shape of the pillow to suggest a better-supported sleeping position.

Finally, in the morning, the Silent Night app provides you with a summary of your sleep quality, giving you insights into your health and full control over your personal data.

I created a simple dashboard based on existing smart watch app capabilities, with additional interfaces for audio levels and sleeping position. It would indicate to users where the majority of their head was resting during the night using different opacity levels for each section of the pillow.
