Amazon aims to grow its reach in the wellness market with the $140 Halo Rise, a new bedside sleep tracker shipping later this year that doubles as a sunrise alarm clock. The launch comes after Amazon released its first halo fitness tracker<\/span> back in 2020 and its sequel, called the Halo View<\/span>in 2021. It’s also another sign that Amazon and other tech giants are trying to fix the way we sleep. <\/p>\n

The Halo Rise is designed to be an alternative to its Halo Band for those who prefer not to wear a wristband or smartwatch overnight but still want to monitor their sleep. Because it sits on your nightstand instead of on your body, it can also gather information about environmental factors that could be affecting your sleep, according to Amazon.<\/p>\n

The Halo Rise doesn’t have cameras or microphones. Instead, it uses low-energy sensors to detect micro-movements that occur while breathing. Amazon then uses machine learning to translate those movements into sleep stages and surfaces these insights in the Halo app. The company says the Halo Rise’s sleep algorithm has been trained and validated against polysomnography, the test that doctors typically use to observe sleep patterns.<\/p>\n

Amazon the Halo Rise during its annual fall product launch event on Wednesday, during which it also announced the Kindle Scribe<\/span>the Fire TV OmniQLED<\/span>three new Echo Dot<\/span> smart speakers and much more<\/span>. <\/p>\n
