中文摘要
OwlandLark是一家总部位于英国的睡眠技术中小企业,其核心项目团队包括Elliott Koehler(工业设计师)、Robert Bagge(软件工程师)、Finlay哈德逊(人工智能研究员)、Hafiz Shariff(产品设计师)和Nicholas Witton(睡眠科学家)。许多失眠症患者并不知道为什么他们会面临质量差、睡眠紊乱的问题。然而,他们通过失去生产性工作和增加对慢性病的易感性感受到其影响。良好的睡眠质量对健康至关重要,因此找到一种分析睡眠并提出改善睡眠方法的解决方案至关重要。为此,OwlandLark正在开发一款模块化的便携式床头灯,它将环境感应、睡眠跟踪和明亮的昼夜节律刺激灯与配套的移动的应用程序结合在一起。它将帮助那些受睡眠问题影响最严重的人,比如轮班工人(许多来自低收入背景),患有神经退行性疾病的人(通常是老年人)、上班族和生活在自然光较少的英国北方的人。OwlandLark将是第一个提供准确、非接触式、非侵入性、连续睡眠跟踪器的公司,它可以提供改善睡眠的环境建议,包括改善昼夜节律的光线。
英文摘要
OwlandLark is a UK-based sleep technology SME with a core project team of Elliott Koehler (industrial designer), Robert Bagge (software engineer), Finlay Hudson (AI researcher), Hafiz Shariff (product designer) and Nicholas Witton (sleep science).Many with insomnia are unaware of why they face poor quality, disturbed sleep. However, they feel its impacts through lost productive work and increased susceptibility to chronic diseases. Good quality sleep is critical for health, so finding a solution that analyses sleep and suggests ways to improve it is vital. To this end, OwlandLark is developing a modular, portable bedside light that combines environmental sensing, sleep tracking and bright circadian-stimulating light with an accompanying mobile app. It will help those most disproportionately affected by sleep issues, like shift workers (many from low-earning backgrounds), individuals with neurodegenerative diseases (often older people), office workers and those living in the northern UK where there is less natural light. OwlandLark will be the first to provide an accurate, contactless, non-invasive, continuous sleep tracker that can offer environmental recommendations for improving sleep, including light to improve circadian rhythms.
