Wakē won't wake up the whole house!

[ad_1]

In the past few months, we have seen many start-ups promoting smart alarm clocks. We think in particular of all these smart health connected bracelets that emit slight vibrations so that their owner wakes up in a given time slot, when they are in light sleep. We also have specific sleep solutions like the Withings Aura sensor. And we finally have Wakē.

In the process of being funded on Kickstarter, Wakē wants to be a smarter alarm clock than the others. The main one is that he doesn't want to wake everyone in the room. Convenient for couples who do not get up at the same time. Until now, vibrations or audible alarms have affected the entire room. Wakē is different since it is a device that attaches to the wall above the bed in less than two minutes. Even the least DIY enthusiasts will quickly install it.

It will detect by the heat where the person who is to be awakened is positioned, and will send a light signal of increasing intensity to simulate a sunrise (white LED) as well as an ultrasonic alarm directed at the time when it has programmed its alarm. The latter must be programmed directly from the iOS or Android mobile application. We can however regret that the sensor does not measure sleep (light, deep) according to movements, because it would be able to. The start-up however wants to play on the ultra transparent side to attract its customers. She undertakes never to keep anyone's data, which can also be appreciated …

The first supporters of Kickstarter were not long in coming, with almost 80% of the campaign already funded within a few hours. There are 37 days left to reach the goal of $ 100,000, with a product that costs $ 249 and will be delivered all over the world. You can find the campaign here.
