Sleep Gadget Simulates Sunrise and Sunset to Help You Rest Better

Waking up to the insistent beep of an alarm clock can quickly lead to the throbbing pain of a headache. One gadget aims to make mornings easier by simulating sunrise for a more natural wake-up call.

The Rise and Shine Serenity Sleep System replicates the rising sun so users can wake calmly, rather than being jolted awake by alarms, according to creator Verilux. It also works the other way around, gradually dimming light to help users fall asleep naturally.

"[Rise and Shine] aligns the body's circadian rhythms that regulate normal sleeping and waking patterns," the company said on its website.

The gadget also includes a color-changing light that acts to calm users, Verilux added. Check out the video, above, for more.
