Sleepman is a wearable limb-mounted device that is worn on the wrist. The device is standalone but can be paired with a smartphone or a personal computer via Bluetooth.<ref>https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1143708961/sleepman-the-first-sleep-enhancement-and-fatigue-a#project_faq_176357</ref> It does, however, require these to fully fulfil its functions as the Sleepman app not only acts as a wellness tracker that displays charts for recorded data, but also expands possible features.<ref>https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1143708961/sleepman-the-first-sleep-enhancement-and-fatigue-a#project_faq_176358</ref>
The official website advertises 8 distinct features of Sleepman: Bio-Smart Alarm, Power Nap Alarm, Doze-off Alert, Sleep Enhancer, Heart Rhythm Monitor, Sleep and Activity Tracker, Panic Alarm, and InsomniZap. Bio-Smart alarm monitors user's sleep cycle and tries to wake them up during the light phases of their sleep. This in turn should make them feel well rested. Power Nap Alarm monitors the sleep activity while the user is taking a short nap and tries not to let the user slip into deeper phases of sleep so they do not wake up more tired. Doze-off Alert is designed mainly for drivers. In this mode, the device monitors drowsiness of the user and alarms them when their fatigue increases to avoid a potential microsleep and car accident. Sleep Enhancer uses an additional wired gel electrode that the user adhesively attached to the inside of their palm. The weak electrical current stimulating the palm is advertised to enhance the sleep quality of the wearer. Hear Rhytm Monitor records the heart rate of the user and can warn them in case of arrhythmia or high heart rate.
