CES 2020 sleep tech: All the products that will help you sleep better
Stop counting sheep with the help of these tools.
8 products to help you stop snoringIf there was one health and wellness theme to take from CES 2020, it's that humans are really bad at sleeping. A ton of new products on display at the show in Vegas claimed that they'll help us fall asleep, stay asleep, track our sleep , and even train our brain to catch more z's. Headbands meant to track sleep, diagnose sleep issues, or teach you how to get better sleep were also common.
These products will enter the increasingly crowded field of sleep tech : Many apps (such as SleepScore, Sleep Cycle and Sleep Time) and fitness bands (including several Fitbit models, the Apple Watch, the Motiv Ring) can now track sleep patterns, as do smart mattresses and bedside sensors.
Here are some of the most interesting sleep tech products we saw at CES 2020. While some are already on the market, others are just prototypes for now.

Restore
Hatch's Restore
At CES, Hatch unveiled the Restore -- a device that combines sleep sounds, a bedside reading light, and a sunrise alarm to address our most common sleep problems, including falling asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. You can personalize the Restore via an app based on your sleep routine, with different sounds (like white noise, water or wind) and the option to wake up with a sunrise alarm and birds chirping. If you wake up in the middle of the night, you can set it so all you have to do is push a button, and it will take you through a sleep sounds routine again, a company spokesperson said at CES.
Restore will be available for purchase in early 2020. Pricing was not announced.
Climate360 smart bed
The Sleep Number Climate360 bed
Sleep Number's new Climate360 smart bed -- announced at CES this year -- uses personalized temperature control to help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep throughout the night. The bed adjusts the temperature on each side throughout the night, warming and cooling based on the sleeper's natural cycle and preferences.
The bed is designed to create a routine that keeps you comfortable all night, a company representative told CNET. When you get into bed, the feet area warms up to help you fall asleep faster. As you go into a deep sleep, the bed cools down to lower your blood pressure and keep you restful. In the morning, the bed slowly starts to warm up.
The Sleep Number Climate360 smart bed is expected to be available in 2021. It will cost $8,000. International pricing isn't available, but that's about $6,100 or AU$11,600.

It's designed to be used for 20 minutes a day, three days a week.
