Philips Sleep Headphones have hit the market for those who experience trouble falling and staying asleep. Designed by Kokoon in partnership with TP Vision, the headphones feature a comfortable fit and adaptive, personalized performance complete with intelligent sleep monitoring.
Measuring only 6mm thick, the Philips Sleep Headphones’ electronics have been relocated from the earbud to a shallow enclosure that sits at the nape of the neck to ensure comfort for both back and side-sleepers. A new silicone cable sleeve design reduces pressure on both the outer earflap and in the ear-canal.
The Philips Sleep Headphones feature an intelligent noise masking feature and SnoreProtect technology that slowly introduces specially-tuned white noise to smooth out peaks in external sound that can distract from quality sleep. The adaptive audio function, which is the core concept at Kokoon, monitors the user’s sleep pattern and uses Biosensors to detect when they have fallen asleep, automatically fading out the audio and replacing it with colored noise of their choice.
Personalized assistance is provided by the integration with the Kokoon App. Sleeping patterns are continuously monitored via accelerometers and a tiny, optical heart rate monitor within the earbud that works by shining light into the skin and measuring how light is scattered from a body’s blood flow. The combined information can then be used to help users better understand and navigate their path to better sleep. Users can access personalized sleep coaching and specialist relaxing audio content tailored to their needs, be it after a stressful day, an unfamiliar sleeping environment or just having a lot on their mind.
The headphones have a ten-hour battery life and can also be used to make calls and stream music including via Apple Music, Audible, Spotify, YouTube, the Calm and Headspace Apps or via the Kokoon App.
The Philips Sleep headphones are available now from the Kokoon website for $285
