aXbo is a new and innovative alarm clock that monitors your sleep pattern and wakes you at the best moment possible.
If that sounds familiar than that is because of our reports about the Sleeptracker watch. The aXbo has a more comfortable design,
as you do not have to wear a watch. The sensor is inside a sweatband. It monitors your movement, which corresponds to the various sleep phases. Your sleep pattern is submitted wirelessly to the alarm clock. The alarm goes off within a 30min. window before your desired wake-up time.
One aXbo alarm clock supports up to two people. Over time the aXbo also learns and optimizes the wake-up moment for each person.
Besides the Sleep Phase wake-up functionality, the aXbo is a well thought out alarm clock. The display for instance automatically switches off. Via the sweatband it can be switched on briefly to check the time. aXbo can be operated with one hand. It has three rechargable batteries and it can automatically recharge them when needed (if connected to AC).
The Austrian based company is taking pre-orders right now. The aXbo Sleep Phase Alarm Clock sells for 199 Euros (aXBo Limited with 2 sensors). They ship internationally. More details on aXbo. Via ORF.
It is great to see a cool gadget coming out of my home country Austria.
If you are Austrian and live abroad or you like the typical Austrian foods, you should check out this new online store called Heimweh Im Bauch
a friend of mine opened. They ship you the yummy things you miss from Austria, like Meinl Coffee, Maresi, Dragee Keksi and goodies like that.
