The lockdown measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have caused unprecedented changes in human behavior worldwide. Sleep is a physiological process that highly depends on environmental and social cues and varies substantially with levels of stress.



“Coronasomnia” is a new term coined to refer to sleep challenges related to the pandemic. Over the past two years, doctors and sleep scientists have documented a wide range of ways that COVID-19 has changed and disrupted sleep patterns. Around 40% of people have experienced sleeping problems, and studies have detected notable increases in insomnia symptoms in adults and children and adolescents.



Hypnos is a non-wearable device that helps people get a good night's sleep and encourages people to develop good sleep habits. Users can set the time they want to fall asleep and wake up on the App associated with the device. After waking up, sleep reports and get advice will be delivered to the user’s App. By nurturing electronic plants, Hypnos can assist users to develop healthy sleeping patterns.
