Additionally, at the event, Nokia also announced the integration of its Health Mate app with Alexa, the cloud-based voice service from Amazon, providing users with data and insights on their activity, sleep, and weight. Nokia also confirmed that it will be launching a new rose gold edition of its popular Steel HR activity tracking watch.

 

However talking about the main highlight of Nokia's event, Nokia Sleep is a Wi-Fi enabled pad that fits under the mattress and provides insight into the quality of the sleep experience while offering environment control through IFTTT, an automation service for all internet-connected things.

The new sleep sensor includes features like:

  • Sleep cycle analysis: sleep duration and interruptions; light, deep and rapid-eye-movement phases; and snoring tracking.
  • An individualized Sleep Score is provided to indicate how restorative a night's sleep was, and educate users about what makes a good night's sleep and how they can improve night after night.
  • Nokia Sleep acts as a switch to automatically control lights, thermostats and more by getting into and out of bed. For example, users can automatically dim the lights when they get into bed.
  • Nokia Sleep also synchronizes automatically with the Nokia Health Mate app so users can have all their health data in one place. The app provides data history, personalized advice, and coaching programs including one developed specifically around sleep.

"Our vision is to help make the world a healthier place and quality of sleep is as critical a component of a healthy lifestyle as regular exercise and a balanced diet," said Rob Le Bras-Brown, head of Nokia's digital health business. "Nokia Sleep gives users insight into what happens when their eyes are closed along with the ability to change the environment for more restorative sleep with IFTTT home automation capabilities. Nokia Sleep will be a game changer in helping maximize a night's sleep to make the most of the next day."

Working with leading sleep experts, Nokia has developed the Sleep Smarter Program, available through the Health Mate app, which guides users during an eight-week period to help them understand sleep patterns and learn to have more balanced and regular sleep routines, especially between weekdays and weekends. Endorsed by renowned sleep specialist Dr. Christopher Winter from the Charlottesville Neurology and Sleep Medicine Clinic, the program has shown that users can increase their sleep by 12 minutes a night with small changes to their behavior and routine.

Moreover, the Nokia Health Mate app will now integrate with Alexa, the cloud-based voice service from Amazon, meaning users can manage their health and fitness with their voice via an Alexa Skill through Alexa-enabled devices. Adding the Alexa Skill for Health Mate is an easy way for users to boost their motivation and check in on the progress made. Alexa can share insights on tracking activity, sleep, and weight for more customized and contextual insights.

Integration with Alexa offers users more flexibility in how they access and use historical data, seamlessly integrating these insights into their daily routines and lives. The Nokia Health Mate app Alexa Skill will be available in Beta beginning January 8, 2018.

Nokia Sleep joins a larger connected health ecosystem of Nokia activity watches, smart scales, and smart health devices and will be available in Q1 2018 priced at $99.95 (roughly Rs. 6,299). Nokia Sleep will be available via Nokia website, Amazon.com and other leading retailers.
