First announced at CES 2014, the Withings Aura sleep monitoring system consists of a sleep sensor that slips under your mattress and a bedside device that tracks your sleep patterns.

The bedside device is a multi-colour LED lamp that supposedly promotes better sleep quality through displaying the correct wavelength of light to promote the body’s secretion of melotonin; the hormone responsible for sleep wake cycle.

Coupled with delicate sound programs, the Withings Aura replicates the circadian rhythm’s frequency and pattern to relax you while you fall asleep and waking you up at a light sleep cycle to ensure that you feel energised. The data is wirelessly synced with the Healthmate app on your smartphones.
