SleepSmart records the distinct pattern 0f bmin waves pmdueed during each phase of sleep,Via a head baJld equipped with electrodes(電極)and a mieroprocessor.This measures electric actiVity of the weare's brain,and eommunicates wirelessly with a clock unit near the bed.You program the clock with the latest time at which vou Wallt t0 be wakened,and it then at the pIDper time wakes you during the 1ast light sleep phase before that.
