This device showed up on Kickstarter and made over seven times his pledge goal.</strong><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"></span><br />

<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hello/sense-know-more-sleep-better" rel="nofollow" style="color: #0058bb; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Sense</a> is described as a system that tracks your sleep behavior, monitors the environment in your bedroom and reinvents the alarm. The device itself would be nothing without the companion iPhone app that tells you everything about your sleep patterns and helps you make sense of that and get better nights. </div>

The device looks like an orb with a flat base. It sits on your nightstand monitoring the conditions in your bedroom and disturbances at night. It works together with the so-called Sleep Pill, a small but sensitive sleep tracking sensor clips to your pillow, and it also needs a nice iPhone app. Sense has a built-in speaker that can play white noise or calming rain to help you sleep better. The speaker is also used to play the Sense's Smart Alarm if it is programmed to wake you up before the time you set it to sense you are moving around. </div>

The Sleep Pill is designed to track your movement. You can clip it to your pillow or wear it on your clothes. The device has a 6-axis accelerometer and gyroscope hidden inside it, so it can detect any movement. The information is sent via Bluetooth Low Energy to your iPhone. One of the best things about it is that the Seep Pill has a battery that lasts for an entire year and it is fully waterproof, so you can wash it with your clothes or pillow covers. </div>

 </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">
Every morning you get a Sleep Score up to 100 and full information on what interfered with your sleep from outside noises, light, your partner's snoring or your own movements. </div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">
The Smart Alarm is just like a regular alarm when you set it, but it won't wake you up at the exact moment you choose, but rather when the device senses you are about to wake up. For example, if you set it up for 9:30 AM, but you are moving in your bed at around 9:15 AM, Sense will go sooner, before you fall deeper into sleep so then it has to force awake you. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">
 </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">
Sense has an Ambient Light Sensor, Temperature and Humidity Sensors, Particles Sensor (to spot dust floating into air and possible other allergy causing factors). It also has WiFi, Bluetooth, ANT modules built in, along with a speaker, a microphone, colored LEDs and a Proximity Sensor. </div>

 </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">
It comes in black and white, and you can still pre-order it on Kickstarter for as low as $99 (€73.7). Shipping will start in November 2014, because this project went over $760,000 (€565,831), although the initial goal was only $100,000 (€74,453).</div>
