London designer invents world’s first smart bed that wakes you from nightmares

Marta Portocarrero18 April 2016

A London designer has invented the world’s first ‘smart bed’ that can be controlled from an app and wake you from nightmares.

The temperature of the bed, which is made up of small air balls covered by several layers of foam, can be controlled from an app on a phone.

Joe Katan, from north London, is hoping to crowd fund the product, which was inspired by his own bad sleeping habits.

He said: “We are trying to utilise modern design and technology to produce beds that you have full control of.

“You can customise it any way you wish.”

The interactive bed also has a ‘vibro massage’ function and an anti-snoring system tuned to detect when your breathing changes.

By recording data such as your core temperature, the bed can be set to wake you up if it senses you are about to have a nightmare.
