# Anti-Snoring Systems The 'Nora' System is Designed to Detect and Stop Snoring By David Ingram | Published 2015-10-15 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anti-snoring References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/nora-anti-snoring-device/39856/) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/behrouz/nora-the-smart-snoring-solution) This anti-snoring system consists of a simple device that helps those suffering from sleep apnea without actually disrupting their sleep. The 'Nora' consists of a smooth-pebble shaped wireless microphone that is specially programmed to detect snoring. Just place the 'Nora' next to your bed and it will be able to detect when you start to snore. A special mini-pump located under your bed will then begin to slowly and quietly inflate a padded cushion inserted between your pillow and its case. The inflatable pad is designed to slightly change your position and tighten your throat muscles to help stop snoring. The anti-snoring system also features a companion app for your smartphone that will actually record and report your sleeping and snoring patterns. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 77% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Wireless Microphone Detection:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to develop wireless microphones with advanced snoring detection capabilities. - **Inflatable Pad Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to improve inflatable pad technology for more effective anti-snoring solutions. - **Sleep Monitoring Apps:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to create advanced sleep monitoring apps that track and analyze snoring patterns. ### Who This Affects Most - **Healthcare:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to introduce innovative anti-snoring systems within the healthcare industry. - **Consumer Electronics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to develop snoring detection and prevention devices for consumer electronics market. - **Sleep Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to revolutionize the sleep technology industry with advanced anti-snoring solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Smart Anti-Snore Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/10minds-motion-pillow.md) - [Active Anti-Snoring Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antisnore-pillow.md) - [Snoring-Reducing Smart Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motion-pillow.md) - [Snoring Correction Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleepmi-z3.md) - [Self-Adjusting Anti-Snoring Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/purelex-smart-pillow.md) - [AI-Enabled Anti-Snoring Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleepmi-z4.md) - [Oral Exercise Anti-Snoring Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antisnoring-tongue-trainer.md) - [Bedside Sleep Aid Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunora.md) - [Sleep-Monitoring Pads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/isleepad.md)
