Sleep monitoring

Aidlab tracks key sleep signals from the chest, where both breathing and cardiac signals are naturally strong and less sensitive to wrist motion artifacts.

How sleep tracking works in Aidlab

Aidlab automatically tracks sleep whenever you wear the device overnight.
No manual session start is required.

During sleep, Aidlab continuously records physiological signals from the chest, including cardiac timing, respiratory impedance, motion, and body position.

The data is processed after in real-time. Low-quality or artifact-heavy segments are excluded from analysis.

To view your sleep data

1. Open the Aidlab app and log in to your account.
2. Pair with your Aidlab if you haven’t already.
3. Go to the Dashboard tab and tap the settings icon in the top-right corner.
4. Add the Sleep component to your dashboard.
5. Tap the Sleep component to explore your night-time data.

Understanding sleep data with Aidlab

Aidlab reconstructs sleep structure using multiple physiological signals recorded from the chest.

Sleep data includes:

• Sleep phases, analyzed across the night to show patterns over time
• Respiratory rate, derived from transthoracic impedance
• Body position and motion
• Heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV) during sleep
• Optional audio markers such as snoring or cough events

Sleep staging is intended for trend analysis across multiple nights, not for single-night clinical interpretation.

What we track during sleep

Sleep phases (sleep staging)
We analyze the night into phases to help you understand patterns over time (not just a single “sleep score”).

Body position
Track how your sleeping position changes and how it relates to breathing comfort and recovery.

Snoring and cough (microphone-based signals)
When enabled, Aidlab can detect snoring/cough signals from audio cues to help you spot nights that may be “off.”

Ultra-accurate respiratory rate
Aidlab measures respiratory rate using transthoracic impedance (changes in the electrical properties of chest tissues during breathing). This method is well-suited for sleep because breathing is more stable and the signal is clean.

Night-time respiratory rate is especially useful because sleep conditions are more repeatable than daytime activity. During the day, breathing changes with movement, talking, stress, and exercise. During sleep, it is easier to see whether your value suddenly differs from your usual trend.

A higher-than-usual night-time respiratory rate may reflect increased body load, weaker recovery, illness, alcohol, a hard workout, or poorer sleep conditions. One night is rarely enough to draw conclusions; trends across several nights are more useful.

Important information

• Aidlab is not a medical device.
• Aidlab does not diagnose sleep disorders, including sleep apnea.
• If you experience symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, or severe fatigue, consult a healthcare professional.
