A bed integrates sensors and other inputs to detect specific sleep environment conditions including point-specific pressure and/or temperature conditions. The bed includes a controller for commanding actuator or other devices to adjust these conditions. The controller may do so based on reference patterns for conditions and profiles of desired conditions. Information regarding the conditions may be provided to a remote computer, which may analyze the conditions and provide revised profiles of desired conditions.

Introduced are methods and systems for an adjustable bed device configured to: gather biological signals associated with multiple users, such as heart rate, respiration rate, or temperature; analyze the gathered human biological signals; and heat or cool a bed based on the analysis.

A bed system includes microclimate control capabilities for providing quality sleep experience. The bed system can include a microclimate control subsystem configured to supply conditioned air (e.g., heated or cooled air) to a mattress, or draw ambient air from the mattress, to achieve a desired temperature at the top of the mattress. Utilizing supply of conditioned air to provide air at desired temperature to the mattress system, or utilizing air suction to drain heat away from the mattress system, can provide precise microclimate control at the mattress, thereby permitting conformable sleep.

A controller is configured to receive one or more streams of data, each stream of data representing a sensed phenomenon in the environment of a bed on which a first user is sleeping and a second user is sleeping. The controller is further configured to determine that the first user is experiencing restless sleep. The controller is further configured to determine that the second user is snoring. The controller is further configured to issue a snore-control command to a controllable home automation device such that the controllable home automation device alters a feature of the second user’s sleeping environment in a way that is likely to reduce the second user’s snoring. The controller is further configured to determine again that that the second user is still snoring and issue a second snore-control command.

A bed includes a mattress set, an adjustable bedframe to adjust a position or orientation of the mattress, and a dryer to dry the mattress set. The dryer includes a fan, a filter, and a heater to discharge filtered hot air toward the dryer. A humidity sensing sheet may be provided to sense a humidity level at different regions or areas of the bed, and the dryer may be controlled to supply hot air to regions of the bed having a higher humidity level than a predetermined humidity level or humidity range.

The invention is directed to a body support assembly comprising (i) an upper cushion zone (6) and a lower cushion zone (7) and separated by a separation sheet (8). The cushion zones (6, 7) comprise of a compressible material which is permeable for air in all directions, (ii) a first flow path (10) for ambient air comprising an air inlet opening (11) at the bottom surface (3) of the support assembly, air displacement means (12), a first heat exchanger (13) and a single or separate air outlet opening (14) at the bottom surface (3) of the support assembly, (iii) a second flow path for air comprising an air inlet (19), air displacement means (20), a second heat exchanger (17), through the lower cushion zone (7), through openings (23) in the separation sheet (8) and through the upper cushion zone (6) and multiple air outlets (22) in the top surface (2). The heat exchangers (13, 17) are part of a Peltier effect unit (16) positioned within the cushion volume (4).

An apparatus and method to selectively create a heat transfer effect and sensation of cooling within bedding on a mattress. A programmable application is accessible on a wireless network and is programmed to provide appropriate settings to attain changes over time of a space within bedding that pertain to at least one of heating the space and realizing a cooling sensation within the space. A wireless receiver is configured to receive commands in a wireless manner that are indicative of the appropriate settings provided by the programmable application to effect changes over time of the space within the bedding attributed to heat transfer with respect to the at least one of heating the space and realizing a cooling sensation within the space. The heat transfer occurs as a result of fluid flow either within a mattress or within space in bedding over the mattress.
