Renowned Swiss designer Yves Béhar wants to help you sleep better

 

Yves Béhar and his team at fuseproject partnered with a startup called Rythm to help you get better quality sleep. The startup unveiled a device they called Dreem, a headband of sorts that makes use of white noise via bone conduction to help you fall asleep quicker. It also monitors your brain function while in deep sleep and syncs that with “sound stimulations” to help improve deep sleep by up to 31 percent. At the same time, the device also serves as an alarm, but without the obnoxious, blaring sound you’re used to. Dreem can be controlled via an Android/iOS app and is now available for pre-order for US$399 (around CA$520) until July 15th. Afterwards, it’ll cost US$499 (around CA$650).
