Carlsbad, California-based SleepScore Labs made a couple of interesting announcements this week that should widen the market and diversify its offerings. The company’s flagship product, SleepScore Max, is a non-connective, bedside sleep monitoring device that measures qualities like time spent in total sleep, light sleep, deep sleep, REM sleep, and time to fall asleep, among other measures.

This week, SleepScore Labs announced an exclusive partnership with Williams Sonoma, Inc., to bring a new product to the retail company’s mass audience. The new product is the “Robin Sleep System,” which combines the SleepScore Max with Williams Sonoma’s Robin Pocket Spring Mattress set, which will be made available online and through select stores including Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, PBteen, West Elm, and Williams Sonoma Home. The retail company has been exploring new enterprises lately, including most recently augmented reality.

“The Robin Sleep System is where sleep and innovation meet. The world’s most advanced non-contact sleep monitor pairs with the comfortable and proven Robin mattress to help millions achieve high quality sleep,” said Colin Lawlor, CEO of SleepScore Labs. “It’s an honor to be the first consumer-sleep tech device in WSI’s home furnishing stores, and to combine our goals to foster healthier lifestyles through sleep.”

Over 80 percent of participants surveyed by SleepScore Labs about the new Robin Pocket Spring Mattress reported falling asleep more easily and waking up without trouble in the morning. Additionally, over 50 percent of respondents described a substantial improvement in their sleep quality.

The exclusive Robin Sleep System, which includes a fully functional SleepScore Max and Robin Pocket Spring Mattress Set, is available starting in twin size at $629. The companies are also selling the SleepScore Max individually for $149 and the Robin Spring Mattress Set starting at $519.

Curating a Sleep Ecosystem

In another new initiative, SleepScore Labs announced an initial lineup of curated sleep products and technologies — something it calls a science-based “sleep ecosystem” — to help the company and its partners further tap the estimated $60 billion sleep market.

Products and services on SleepScore Labs’ ecosystem have been evaluated and tested based on personal sleep measurement data measure by SleepScore Max after an extended period of use. The recommendations include white noise and fan sound-masking devices, a music-enabled pillow, blue light generators, a DNA-based sleep app, and a snore-detecting solution named as one of Oprah Winfrey’s “Favorite Things.”

“SleepScore Labs’ mission is to help people sleep, feel, and live better while advancing the science of sleep health – and that starts with amassing accurate big data around sleep to feed into the most comprehensive ecosystem exclusively dedicated to sleep,” said Colin Lawlor, CEO of SleepScore Labs. “With more than 3 million nights of objective sleep data, we have quality insights on how people truly sleep. As our large user base grows, SleepScore Labs continues to evaluate the efficacy of products that claim to improve sleep based on objective and self-reported data.”

SleepScore Labs was created in 2016 as a joint venture between ResMed, Dr. Mehmet Oz, and Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P. to help people sleep, feel, and live better.

Las Vegas is overrun. Every billboard in town is shouting about AI, hotel bar tops now sport a sea of laptops, and after hours The Strip is elbow to elbow with engineers toting yard-long beers.

That means CES, the year’s biggest tech bacchanalia, has come to town, and Digital Trends editors have spent the last four days frolicking among next year’s crop of incredible TVs, computers, tablets, and EVs. We’re in heaven.

Ring shows off new Kidde smoke alarms and free 2K camera upgrades at CES 2025

Ring made a big -- though rather surprising -- announcement at CES 2025, revealing that it has partnered with Kidde to launch a new collection of smart smoke alarms. Arriving in April, the collection includes the Kidde Smart Smoke Alarm and Combination Alarm, the latter of which detects both smoke and carbon monoxide. They’ll sync with the existing Ring app to send users alerts should anything trigger its sensors, and they should be an enticing option for folks who have already bought into the Ring ecosystem.

While customers will receive alerts via the mobile app, they can also sign up for the new Ring 24/7 Smoke & CO Monitoring Subscription for $5 per month. This is a professional monitoring service that lets a trained dispatch team keep tabs on your detectors -- and if they’re triggered, the dispatch team can automatically contact emergency services and send them to your home. That should provide more peace of mind than your normal smoke alarms, which might ring out loud and clear but can’t alert the fire department.

Jackery’s new solar panels are indistinguishable from your roof
jackerys new solar panels are indistinguishable from your roof jwholehome

When you think of solar panels on a home, what's the first thing that comes to mind? In most cases, it's the square, black photovoltaic cells. While those do work, they aren't the most aesthetically pleasing. This is an issue, especially in communities with draconic HOAs. The Jackery Solar Roof offers an attractive alternative that's practically indistinguishable from terracotta roofing tiles.

The Solar Roof has a conversion rate of over 25%. That might not sound like a lot, but the average efficiency rating of solar panels is typically between 15% and 22%, putting Jackery far ahead of the pack. These panels are tougher than a normal roof, too; they're impact and hail resistant and come with a 30-year warranty. That's right, 30 years (and the average lifespan of a normal roof is only 20 years).
