# Snore-Reducing Pillows The 'Nora' is a Device That Gently Turns Your Head to Prevent Snoring By Christopher Magsambol | Published 2015-10-25 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nora References: [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/behrouz/nora-the-smart-snoring-solution?ref=discovery) & [smartnora](http://www.smartnora.com/) 'Nora' is a non-invasive [snoring solution](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resmed-airtouch-n30i) meant to help both snorers and those sleeping next to them. The innovative device comes with a [comfortable pillow insert](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infrared-dream-pillow) that tucks neatly into your pillow and is connected to its bedside pump. This is accompanied by a small round device that acts as a sensor and can be placed anywhere near your bed. Throughout the night as you snore, the insert gently moves your pillow using an inflatable system powered by a mini pump. Silently and gently moving your head stimulates your throat muscles to relax. This gentle motion forces your airways to assume their natural position and breath normally -- snore free. The accompanying Nora app provides detailed information on your [overnight activity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/isleepad), including the reduction of snoring time. The app also shows how Nora was activated throughout the night where loud snoring was prevented. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Snoring Solutions:** The development of non-invasive devices like 'Nora' presents disruptive innovation opportunities for the snoring solutions market. - **Sleep Technology:** Advancements in sleep technology, such as the integration of sensors and smartphone apps, create new opportunities for improving sleep quality and reducing snoring. - **Health Monitoring:** The Nora app's ability to track snoring time and provide detailed information on overnight activity showcases the potential of health monitoring technology. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Healthcare:** The snoring solutions market within the healthcare industry can benefit from the advancements in non-invasive devices like 'Nora'. - **Consumer Electronics:** The integration of sensors and smartphone apps in sleep technology products like 'Nora' opens up opportunities for innovation and growth in the consumer electronics industry. - **Mobile Apps:** The Nora app's features, such as tracking snoring time and providing insights on sleep activity, contribute to the development of the health monitoring sector within the mobile app industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Smart Anti-Snore Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/derucci-antisnore-pillow.md) - [Snoring-Reducing Smart Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motion-pillow.md) - [Active Anti-Snoring Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antisnore-pillow.md) - [Self-Adjusting Anti-Snoring Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/purelex-smart-pillow.md) - [Snoring Correction Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleepmi-z3.md) - [Oral Exercise Anti-Snoring Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antisnoring-tongue-trainer.md) - [AI-Enabled Anti-Snoring Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleepmi-z4.md) - [Bedside Sleep Aid Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunora.md) - [Biofeedback Sleep Aid Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/somnox-1.md)
