Improving Sleep Quality Through an Arduino-Based Environment Sleep Monitoring System

Sleep disorders are a significant public health concern, affecting approximately 30 % of adults. These conditions are associated with various health issues, including hyperac-tivity disorder, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and obesity. Monitoring the resting environment is paramount to taking the first step toward getting a good night's sleep. Technological advances have recently allowed the development of non-invasive sleep monitoring systems, essential to minimize interferences with the monitored sleep quality. Such systems can improve individuals' sleep quality by identifying potential sleep- disturbing elements in private bedrooms. In this paper, we present a non-invasive sleep environment monitoring system based on Arduino, which acquires data on main environmental factors affecting sleep quality and duration, such as noise, light, and room temperature. The data from the sensors are processed and analyzed using the Arduino boards in conjunction with a tailored Google platform, providing real-time monitoring of the sleep environment. By allowing individuals to monitor their sleep environment, the proposed system aims to promote awareness and encourage healthy sleep practices, improving overall health outcomes. In conclusion, the non-invasive sleep environment monitoring system presented in this paper offers a promising approach to addressing the issue of sleep disorders. Its simple design and user-friendly interface make it an accessible tool for non-expert users looking to optimize their sleep environment and improve their sleep quality. We believe that this system has the potential to contribute significantly to the field of sleep health.
