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埃利奥特·克勒(工业设计师)、罗伯特·巴格格(软件工程师)、芬利·哈德森(人工智能研究员)、哈菲兹·沙里夫(产品设计师)和尼古拉斯·威顿(睡眠科学)。许多失眠症患者并不知道为什么他们面临着睡眠质量差、睡眠受到干扰的问题。然而,他们通过失去生产性工作和增加对慢性病的易感性来感受到它的影响。良好的睡眠质量对健康至关重要,因此找到一种解决方案来分析睡眠并提出改善睡眠的方法至关重要。为此,OwlandLark正在开发一种模块化的便携式床头灯,它将环境传感、睡眠跟踪和明亮的昼夜刺激灯与配套的移动应用程序结合在一起。它将帮助那些受睡眠问题影响最大的人,如倒班工人(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)、上班族以及那些生活在自然光较少的英国北部的人。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,它可以为改善睡眠提供环境建议,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.
