Nintendo Still Dreaming About A Mysterious Device That Helps You Sleep Better At Night
Back in 2014 Nintendo Co. Ltd. announced its plans to release a “Quality of Life” (QOL) device that purportedly would help people sleep better at night. The company was to team-up with medical technology company ResMed to create a non-wearable, non-contact, non-operating (no human effort needed), non-waiting, non-installation effort gizmo that would watch you as you sleep and give you important feedback when you wake up.
In 2014 Nintendo President and CEO Satoru Iwata said, “Despite a huge potential market, there are no decisive products because all solutions so far required user effort, which made continuing difficult. You simply put our QOL sensor next to the bed and that’s it.” Such a product would sense you are asleep and update your sleeping behavior to the cloud. Once you were awake it would give you the results and offer information concerning how you might achieve a better night’s sleep in the future.
