The Withings Aura is a state-of-the-art sleep tracking system that is designed to monitor your sleep and improve sleep quality. The technology combines a contact-less sleep sensor that is tucked under your mattress, an active light and sound bedside device and a companion smartphone app. The device offers dedicated sleep and wake-up programs using both light and sound to provide a comfortable, stress-free wake-up experience.
The Withings Aura takes into account the scientifically proven correlation between light wavelengths and the secretion of the hormone melatonin, which is responsible for the sleep-wake cycle. The Aura's wake-up cycle uses a narrow blue light spectrum that inhibits melatonin and raises your alertness.
The Aura comes with a variety of programs that help you sleep and wake up in a relaxed and healthy manner.
