GoKawiilAnker launches SleepLab radar speaker to track and improve sleep
Anker has unveiled SleepLab, a bedside speaker that uses 60GHz millimeter-wave radar to monitor heart rate and breathing without requiring a wearable device. Over roughly a month of use, it learns which combinations of binaural beats and ambient lighting help the user relax and stay asleep, operating standalone without a phone or subscription. The device can be reserved for $1, with the radar-equipped Pro model priced at $269.99 and a non-radar version at $169.99.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Sleep tech has largely relied on wearables like rings and watches, so a contactless radar-based alternative could appeal to users who dislike sleeping with devices on their bodies. However, the reliance on unproven wellness gimmicks like binaural beats raises questions about whether the science backs up the marketing, and independent reviews will be needed to validate its actual effectiveness.
- SleepLab uses 60GHz radar to track breathing and heart rate contactlessly from a nightstand.
- The device personalizes sound and lighting routines over about a month without needing a subscription.
- Pricing ranges from a $1 reservation to $269.99 for the radar-equipped Pro model.
