Near Field Communication Used to Track Sleep

This week iMPak Health announced the launch of its new SleepTrak, the first such product to use Near Field Communication (NFC). The enabled mobile health and wellness application will launch on Nokia’s Symbian platform, including the Nokia C7 Smartphone, where users can download the free app from the Ovi store.

“NFC and Cypak technology enable SleepTrak to bring many aspects of a professional sleep assessment session to the consumer market for a fraction of the price,” says Per Nathanaelson, iMPak Health President and CEO. “With iMPak Health’s provider expertise from Meridian Health, the SleepTrak data will be useful when presented to a trained medical professional.”

The SleepTrak app was developed and designed specifically to provide consumers with an easy to use device that can tell them more about how well they sleep at night, track symptoms associated with inefficient sleep, and provide resources and suggestions for better sleep habits. The SleepTrak card specifically utilizes a method widely used in Sleep Labs called actigraphy which is analyzed to create sleep efficiency scores.

Need to figure out how you can get a better night’s sleep? There’s an app for that.
