The Sleeptracker wristwatch has a vibrating alarm function that, within a preset alarm-time window, wakes you at an optimal stage of your sleep cycle to minimize grogginess. The watch figures this out by monitoring your body’s physical signals via sensors that track the stages of your cycles — from deep sleep to very light, almost-awake stages. An almost-awake stage is the least wrenching and most refreshing time to be awakened. By reviewing several nights’ data on the watch face (or on your computer via the included USB cable), you get a propitious time frame, and can set the alarm accordingly. The watch won’t make you sleep better, but it does make the best of the sleep you get. It has a day/date digital display and can be set to a vibrating and/or ringing alarm. Sleeptracker is $179; or call Innovative Sleep Solutions at 800-617-4509.
