Most gadgets are designed to be used while you are awake, but Ali Khimji selects a few unique ones that help you get to sleep better.
Sleep Statistics
Zeo Sleep Manager Pro+
Everything in life seems to be tracked these days. People count the calories they consume during meals, drivers keep tabs on the fuel efficiency of their cars, and now you can track the quality of your sleep. The Zeo Sleep Manager Pro+ comes with a lightweight, wireless headband that tracks your sleep phases, by measuring brain waves, muscle tone and eye movement. This information is then sent to your smartphone, where you can assess when you are sleeping well and how you can improve the quality of your sleep. There is also a SmartWake feature, which helps you rise at the optimal point in your sleep cycle.

Head in the Sand
Ostrich Pillow
We’ve all heard about the benefits of power naps, but actually taking one can be a logistical nightmare. It would be quite uncomfortable to nap at your desk and curling up on the office floor is out of the question. But the Ostrich Pillow offers a microenvironment where you can take a warm and comfortable nap at ease. It’s also designed to block out light and noise, so it’s easier to get rest in busy surroundings. The pillow’s interesting name was inspired by the way ostriches bury their head in the sand when they sleep.
