Smart Sleep Headbands

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Somnee Has Been Noted as a Transformative Innovation by Fast Company

— November 21, 2024 — Tech
Somnee, a smart sleep headband that utilizes noninvasive tACS (transcranial alternating current stimulation) neuromodulation, has been named to Fast Company’s 2024 Next Big Things in Tech list. This wearable device aims to improve sleep quality by integrating sleep lab-grade technology into a user-friendly headband. The tACS neuromodulation technology is backed by over 20 clinical studies and multiple patents. It aims to enhance sleep onset, maintenance, and overall restorative sleep quality.

Somnee’s standout feature is its closed-loop system, which combines EEG+ sensors with proprietary AI and machine learning models. This setup enables personalized sleep solutions tailored to each user. This, in turn, offers a more efficient and direct method of sleep enhancement compared to traditional remedies like melatonin, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-i), or medications. Through the smart sleep headband, users can expect faster sleep onset, improved sleep duration, and better sleep efficiency.
