Alarm clocks work well if the intention is to wake up everyone in the bedroom, but if it's not, Homedics launched the WakeBand as an ultra-lightweight wristband that acts as an alternative to noisy wake-ups. More than 41% of Americans lose sleep when sharing a bed with their partner due to mismatched schedules, and the WakeBand was developed as a solution for early risers, new parents and couples who sleep and wake at different times.
WakeBand offers nine customizable vibration modes and nine levels of intensity, so that users can ensure that they'll wake up, and do so in a way that's more refreshing than an alarm clock's jarring sounds. Comfort-wise, the band is lightweight and breathable, but not distracting to wear overnight.
