Sleep tracking is simply the procedure of monitoring someone's sleep patterns, which is performed most often through measurements of movement and inactivity to gauge normal sleeping patterns. In most cases, a device that monitors someone's sleep is also known as a sleep tracker. It is usually attached to the wrist or a leg strap which allows the person to wear it during his waking hours. The device measures the time and duration of sleep, as well as the percentage of time the person sleeps, and provides reports on the amount of time he sleeps without any problems. There are many models of sleep trackers here and some models come with additional features.


Most sleep trackers come with an app that can be downloaded from the respective vendor's or the developer's website. The app uses the device's sensors to record and then calculate the number of hours a person sleeps. This app can be used to analyze sleep patterns and record data for future reference. The app calculates the average number of stages each night and alerts the user if the stages of sleep have changed.


The different sleep stages are rapid eye movement stage, non rapid eye movement stage, deep sleep stage, light sleep stage, and REM (Rapid Eye Movement) stage. The device records the time each one of these stages it detects. Some sleep trackers use different color alarms to differentiate each stage. A sleep tracker may also be set to alert you when it detects you have woken up from Stage 1, 2, or Stage 3 of your sleeping cycle.


The dilemmas sleep trackers are wireless devices. Some can also be hooked up to a computer using a USB cable. There are also devices that can be attached to the wrist. Some devices are designed to be used while someone is sitting still, while others can alert you to move your arms or legs so that you can get out of bed or go on a bathroom break.


Many sleep trackers also use temperature sensors to determine sleep quality. These sensors can be placed either inside or outside of the home. They can determine things like body temperature, humidity, temperature level, and sunlight. They can also detect changes in the speed of the heart beat, so the sleep tracker can tell you to get up and move around. The more advanced sleep trackers can also tell you how many hours you have slept during the night, how long you spend asleep, and measure the amount of light that was shed during the night.

Some sleep trackers have the ability to measure brain activity during the night. Some monitors use an internal sensor that measures brain activity during the night. The brain activity can be measured via an EEG (electro-encephalographs) or through a different method. A sleep tracking monitor may include heart rate monitors or they may use another type of heart rate monitor. Other sleep trackers may include some other features as well, such as a stop watch or a clock.
