Ypnos

Your All-in-One Sleep Solution

In today’s world, our lifestyles have become more and more stressful, intense and rushed. In this fast-paced world, sleep is crucial for a healthy lifestyle, however, survey by LocalCircles found that 55% of participants in India get less than 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep and 21% get less than 4. This is a worrying metric and it prompted me to create an intervention that would underline the importance of sleep and improve sleep quality for the users.

Ypnos is an all-in-one sleep manager. Using smart connected home tech, Ypnos sets up the perfect sleep environment in your bedroom. It uses lighting to simulate the sunset motion to trigger the circadian rythm of your body while setting the perfect temperature (16-21 degrees) using the air-con. Simultaneously, it turns on the humidifier to maintain a comfortable 30-50% humidity in the room, perfect for keeping your skin and lips from drying and your nasal passage open and clear.

Mercury and Gemini are two different sized and shaped humidifiers. mercury is the smaller, cylinderical humidifier which is controlled through kennedy or an app while gemini is the bigger, cuboidal humidifier with exactly the same technological specs. Both also get inbuilt speakers that can emit white-noise to further the experience of peaceful sleep.

The entire system works in tandem and will initiate every night automatically at a selected time so that the sleep environment is ready for the user at bed-time.
