AMSTERDAM, Sept. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- A partner who snores, a baby crying, a dog barking, traffic in a busy neighbourhood, stresses or just worries keeping you up - anyone who regularly suffers the misery of disturbed sleep will tell you that the value of a good, uninterrupted night's rest is just about priceless.
Designed in partnership between TP Vision and Kokoon, the new Philips Sleep headphones offer one of the most sophisticated, comfortable and effective solutions yet available - helping wearers fall asleep more easily, while also intelligently protecting their peaceful slumber from outside disturbances as they sleep.
Sleep occupies nearly a third of our life. It is vital to our physical health, mental health, energy and productivity. More than 20 large scale epidemiological studies all report the same clear relationship: the shorter your sleep, the shorter your life. While there are an almost unlimited number of ideas claiming to offer solutions, 89%* of consumers already agree that audio helps them relax, distract their mind and sleep.
While 17%* also admit having tried to use their existing headphones to do the job, but nearly all agree that it's not a comfortable solution and not a great way to protect their expensive audio investment.
What's required is a dedicated product that combines a snug, comfortable fit with great sound, intelligent, adaptive and personalised performance, and all in combination with accurate sleep monitoring.
The Philips Sleep Headphones are precisely that product.
All of the main electronic components have been relocated away from the earbud and into a shallow enclosure that sits at the nape of the neck - typically undetectable when lying down. The inclusion of balanced armature drivers, allows the headphones to have the smallest profile measuring just 6mm thick, as opposed to the more normal 20+mm body of most earbuds.
Philips has modified the design of the original product concept with a new silicone cable sleeve design with a tighter wrap - to reduce the pressure both on the outer earflap and in the ear-canal - and has rotated the earbud around the ear-tip to help avoid the cable contacting with the sensitive tragion part of the ear.
The tiny size of the headphones - now with the option of five ear-tip sizes - plus the cable modifications ensure that the ear buds are always correctly placed and makes sure they stay in place all night long.
Sensors within the earbuds monitor the users sleep pattern to adapt the audio delivery and automatically fade out audio as the user drifts off.
External noises are usually the main reason for disturbed sleep. The Philips Sleep Headphones have excellent noise isolation that works in combination with an intelligent noise masking feature and SnoreProtect technology that uses precisely tuned, slowly introduced, white noise to smooth out peaks in external sound that can be disruptive, helping users to get a less disturbed, better-quality sleep.
Personalised assistance is provided by the integration with the Kokoon App. Sleeping patterns are continuously monitored via accelerometers and a tiny, optical heart rate monitor within the earbud that works by shining light into the skin and measuring how light is scattered from a body's blood flow. The combined information can then be used to help users better understand and navigate their path to better sleep. Users can access personalised coaching and specialist audio content tailored to their needs, be it after a stressful day, an unfamiliar sleeping environment or just having a lot on their mind.
The headphones have a ten-hour battery life and can also be used to make calls and stream music including via Apple Music, Audible, Spotify, YouTube, the Calm and Headspace Apps or via the Kokoon App.
