It uses a device similar to a Wi-Fi router to determine everything from how shallow your breathing is to whether you’re having a dream or not. The study was conducted by a group consisting of researchers from MIT and Massachusetts General Hospital’s Division of Sleep Medicine. MIT Professor Dina Katabi says: Imagine if your Wi-Fi router knows when you are dreaming, and can monitor whether you are having enough deep sleep, which is necessary for memory consolidation. Our vision is developing health sensors that will…
