Withings Aura
Well known in the fitness tracker space, Withings offers a unique sleep tracker consisting of pad placed under your mattress, along with an LED-equipped light that you set by your bedstand. In addition to being a sleep tracker, the Aura acts as a sleep aid—the LED light provides warm colors to lull you to sleep when you’re ready for bed, and helps ease transitions in and out of sleep with a combination of sound and light effects. It’s an effective alarm clock, too, with a customizable wake-up period of blue light and sounds that gently rouse you from sleep over 20 minutes or so, rather than the typical shock of an old-school alarm. The Aura also provides special programs for naps if you’re feeling exhausted during the day. The Aura doesn’t come cheap—expect to pay $300—but it connects with the holistic Withings app, so it’s especially valuable if you already have Withings products, or if you want all your health and fitness information in one place. ($299.99, www.withings.com, app available on Android/iOS)
