NIGHT OWL - SLEEP MONITORING INTERFACE
Night Owl is a camera-based system for Clinicians and Caregivers that automatically measures sleep disturbances in a bedroom setting. Night Owl measures a set of disruptive behavioral and environmental sleep events and visualizes them in a timeline-based interface to assist with diagnosing, monitoring, and addressing sleep issues.
The aim of the system is to free caregivers from the burden of instrumenting Dependents with hardware, charging batteries and downlinking data. The system uses a Microsoft Kinect and a PC laptop for to measure a person’s sleep posture, vocalizations, and proximity, along with common sense environmental conditions that impact sleep such as sudden sound and lighting changes.
Capture - Collects supplementary sleep data while maintaining strict privacy for guests.
Analyze - Measures guest sleep posture, vocalizations, environmental lighting, and proximity automatically using a single system.
Access - Visualizes supplementary sleep information for Caregivers and Clinicians
