Nyx
Sleep objects.
Today, the world’s population suffers from a real lack of sleep, however it is a vital need. Nyx materializes a new rest method respecting our biological cycles and validated by the French National Institute of Health (INSERM).
Nyx is adjustable on user-specific cycles and works by magnetization. Two balls move on the dial to determine the ideal times to fall asleep and wake up, closest to those desired. Moreover, it disconnects the phone by hiding it, while programming an alarm at the optimal time and a “reasonable” recharge overnight.
By recovering this natural rhythm, sleep optimizes itself. This approach offers much more restful deep sleep : for exemple 4h30 of biological sleep is more regenerative than 8h of “classic” rest.
Nyx offers a loophole to respond to our current lifestyle.
