Abstract:
1. A method for using telemetry data related to sleep of an individual, comprising: providing a monitoring device with a microphone, an RF transmitter and sensors to determine air quality, sound level/quality, light quality and ambient temperature near the individual; detecting the individual's movement sounds using an accelerometer; using the accelerometer and the monitoring device to assist in determining individual sleep information and sleep behavior information; using the microphone to record individual movement sounds detected by the accelerometer; and using the accelerometer to cause the microphone to stop recording the individual's movement sounds when the movement sounds are not directed to a sleep related parameter; receiving the individual's movement and monitoring device information at a telemetry system that includes a database; analyzing the individual's movement information and the monitoring device information to assist with one or more analysis tools at the telemetry system to calculate or derive sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruptions, and the quality and depth of sleep; and producing analysis information for the individual's sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruptions, and the quality and depth of sleep that is displayed on the monitoring device.
