We have a queen mattress with a pillowtop - so its taller than a standard queen. Would this work with the queen size Luna product? It likely wouldn't reach the bottom of the mattress, but it seems like that shouldn't be a big deal.

We currently don't have a built-in motor for the vibration, currently we are using the phone as an alarm, informed by the data coming from Luna. We have an experimental feature that consists in gradually increasing the volume of the alarm sound till we notice you are waking up: the goal is to keep it just loud enough to wake you up but not your partner. This is obviously assuming your phone sits on a nightstand on yo…
Any chance you could integrate it with a Hue or similar to do a light-based alarm, given it has wifi?

#64I'm pretty sure I'm not in the target market, though, and that this would do nothing to improve my sleep. The number one reason I sleep or don't sleep is whether or not my babies sleep :)

The product is wifi and we approach integration with partners in two ways: - some products will be integrated directly to enable a very specific user experience (in particular thermostats and smart locks for now) - for other products we are integrated with IFTTT so that a user can customize even the most complicated scenario (we are also looking at other integration platforms, ideas are welcome) Aaand... ticket creat…
> in particular thermostats and smart locks for now But what will they actually do ? What are the use cases that you're looking at?
- lower the house temp when everyone is in bed (save energy + better sleep environment)
- detect whether you are likely to come home tonight or not to avoid warming up your bed if you are traveling
- letting the thermostat know what's the temp/humidity in your bedroom when you are in bed
Smart locks: you get in bed and, if you left the door unlocked, you get a push notification that says: "Your door is unlocked, do you want to lock it?"
These are core use cases now, we will definitely expand the list, there are a lot of things that need to happen in a smart home when you get in bed or fall asleep or when you wake up.

Re: Luna – Hack your sleep
#67Dang, I just bought a dual zone heated mattress cover. Absolutely love it except for the fact that it's all manual; you can't turn it on remotely or schedule on and off times (although it automatically shuts off after a fixed 10 hours). I often go to bed later than my wife, so have to sneak in to the bedroom 15 minutes before bed to turn my side on (or leave it on unnecessarily, or get into a cold bed, defeating the…
You probably got a "SoftHeat" (made by Perfect Fit maybe?), I love them, they are really good quality. One of the problems they have is that they are not aware of the temperature and after a few hours usually get too hot and really uncomfortable. When using them I usually wake up feeling too hot and have to turn them off.
Given that we just got it I'll probably hold off on this project for now, but I definitely see an upgrade in the future!

#69Putting this technology in the mattress cover is great. Kudos to you. I'm pretty sure I'm not in the target market, though, and that this would do nothing to improve my sleep. The number one reason I sleep or don't sleep is whether or not my babies sleep :)

It integrates with nest to control the thermostat. Beyond that ... get a lighter weight blanket?
It's a real challenge if you live somewhere warm. Even using only a sheet and with a fan blowing directly on me I still want/need colder. Here in NC it'll often be 85-90F and humid, even at night.
