Whether it is a smart watch, a smart door lock, or a smart refrigerator, smart speaker and other products, I believe that most of the small partners will have at least one or two such smart products in their homes.
However, the scope of smart products is no longer limited to one area. Among them, the increasingly intelligent home has gradually become the norm. And the user's demand and requirements for smart products are also becoming higher and higher, and a very practical product has recently appeared - smart bed.
Not only can you sleep on it, but you can also monitor your physical condition
The increasingly intelligent home may be a necessity for the development of the times, and it is also the result of people's pursuit of quality of life. In order to better respond to the needs of different users, major manufacturers have also shown their magic on smart devices, and different smart products have emerged in an endless stream.
In addition to common smart watches, smart speakers and other products, smart beds have also appeared in smart homes. As we all know, the bed is a tool for sleeping, what kind of scene will it be like to add smart technology to it?
It is reported that a company called Sleep Number has launched a smart bed. In fact, this company is the first company to make smart beds, and it has also experienced a very bumpy process on the road to making smart beds.
What is a smart bed? In short, it's a bed, but new technology has been added to that bed.
In fact, before the emergence of the latest smart bed, the early smart bed standard version had four basic functions such as left and right partitioning, automatic adjustment of softness and hardness, tracking sleep data, automatic absorption of heat energy and release of heat energy. That is to say, the pre-smart bed pays more attention to allowing users to have a more comfortable sleeping environment.
Recently, Sleep Number has launched a new 360 smart bed, which adds a mobile assist device on the basis of the original, mainly to help sleepers who have needs when going to bed and leaving bed.
Secondly, it also has unique noise reduction and audio functions, which are designed to reduce noise. In addition to that, it is configured with charging ports and storage areas. Considering that some users will have reading habits, the smart bed is also equipped with reading lights.
In Xiao Hei's view, the smart bed is both a rest tool and a health care tool. First of all, as a necessity of life, the bed is naturally used for sleeping, which is also its most primitive role. Secondly, it is said that it is a health care tool because Sleep Number has shifted the positioning of this 360 smart bed from "comfort" to "index", of which focusing on technology research and development is the company's most distinctive.
It is worth mentioning that the new 360 smart bed can also continuously monitor the general health status of sleepers, sleep health behaviors, chronic sleep conditions and so on. Specific sleep analysis reports and suggestions can be given for different sleep problems of different sleepers, so that sleepers can be more aware of their own health and sleep problems, so as to treat them in time.
The report will remind sleepers of diseases and health problems that are likely to occur, such as insomnia, sudden respiratory arrest while sleeping, and so on. But that doesn't mean it can diagnose every disease, even the most advanced smartwatches are difficult to reach for the time being. And this also requires the approval of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, from which the credibility of the report is relatively high.
In China, can it be popularized?
Obviously, with the multifunctional 360 smart bed, its price will not be very low. The new 360 smart bed starts at $1,099 abroad, equivalent to 7,000 yuan. From the price alone, perhaps its audience may be more limited,
It is not suitable for the needs of the general public.
After all, not every family is willing or able to spend 7,000 yuan to buy only one bed, so it may not be easy to implement in China, at least not too easy at this stage. Since everyone's budget is different, perhaps some users will choose other smart beds with better cost performance on the market.
Of course, its practicality is still great. Especially for users with sleep disorders and limited mobility, its emergence is undoubtedly to add a guarantee to their quality of life.
If you only look at your own needs and the practicality of the product, Xiaohei believes that there will still be many users who will choose to buy. In today's era of great pressure on life and work, it is only when there is rest to relax, and having a bed that can relax and predict health problems is the embodiment of the quality of life, and it is also an attitude and enjoyment of life.
In general, in addition to the slightly more expensive price, its health and sleep detection functions are still very technological. As for whether it can be popularized in China, it is still uncertain, and it will not be known until it is officially listed in 2023.
However, in Xiaohei's view, because of the development of science and technology, more and more products are biased towards intelligence. Perhaps in the near future, we can not only enjoy the comfort and monitoring brought by smart beds, but also enjoy more unexpected and eye-catching smart products.
