Sleep-aid Device And Method Thereof
A sleep-aid device may include at least one sensor configured to sense an activity of a user during sleep, a memory unit, and a processing unit in communication with the at least one sensor and the memory unit. Audiovisual and audio content may be available to be selected for display on an electronic display and selected for play by an audio output device. The processing unit may be configured to select a common theme of audiovisual content and audio content, enable the user to play the audiovisual content on the electronic display, initiate playing the first audio content by the audio output device a determined number of times to ease falling asleep, cause the second audio content to be played by the audio output device, and cause the third audio content to be played at a first volume threshold to wake the user by the audio output device.

- 1. A sleep aid device, comprising:
at least one sensor configured to sense an activity of a user during sleep; a memory unit configured to store audiovisual and audio content available to be (i) selected for display on an electronic display and (ii) selected for play by an audio output device; and a processing unit in communication with said at least one sensor and said memory unit, and configured to:
select a common theme of audiovisual content and audio content including:
(i) a first audio content;
(ii) a second audio content; and
(iii) a third audio content;
enable the user to play the audiovisual content on the electronic display;
after the audiovisual content has completed, initiate playing the first audio content by the audio output device a determined number of times to ease falling asleep;
in response to receiving a first sensor signal from one of said at least one sensor that senses a first biological activity indicative of a specific state during sleep, cause the second audio content to be played by the audio output device; and
in response to receiving a second sensor signal from one of said at least one sensor that senses a second biological activity indicative of the user beginning to waking up, cause the third audio content to be played at a first volume threshold to wake the user by the audio output device.

- 17. A computer-implemented method of aiding sleep, the method comprising:
selecting a common theme of audiovisual content and audio content including:
(i) a first audio content;
(ii) a second audio content; and
(iii) a third audio content;
enabling a user to play the audiovisual content; after the audiovisual content has completed, initiating playing the first audio content by an audio output device a determined number of times to ease falling asleep; in response to receiving a first sensor signal from one of at least one sensor that senses a first biological activity indicative of a specific state during sleep, causing the second audio content to be played by the audio output device; and in response to receiving a second sensor signal from one of the at least one sensor that senses a second biological activity indicative of the user beginning to waking up, causing the third audio content to be played at a first volume threshold to wake the user by the audio output device.
