[Oura Wearables'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oura-ring-41) election night campaign tracked a sleepless night for Americans. Oura Wearables produces sleep-tracking rings that boast some of the most accurate and effective results. In its latest campaign, the brand projected some of its findings on a Times Square billboard, highlighting the high-stress night that was felt throughout the nation.

On the night of November 3rd, the [sleep-tracker's data base](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/discovery-vitality-and-oura) noted that Americans slept 25.2 minutes less than they normally do, totalling 139 million hours of rest. The brand's [billboard campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/decaf-billboard) cleverly takes advantage of the collective anxiety in a way that's both comforting and humorous. To further the notion, the tagline of "Know why you feel how you feel" closes off the ad.
