Abstract

Claims (35)

1. A system comprising:

(a) an adjustable bed frame:

(i) comprising a first zone and a second zone, each comprising at least one adjustable section,

(ii) wherein each of the at least one adjustable section of the first zone and the second zone is configured to independently adjust at least one angular position thereof relative to a rest position, to incline or decline said each of the at least one adjustable section of the first zone and the second zone; and

(b) a processor:

(i) communicatively coupled to the adjustable bed frame; and

(ii) configured to direct the adjustable bed frame to independently adjust the at least one angular position of said each of the at least one adjustable section of the first zone and the second zone based on one or more of a biological signal of at least one user or an instruction from said at least one user; and

wherein said at least one user comprises a first user for the first zone and a different second user for the second zone, and

wherein said processor is configured to distinguish the first user from the different second user based on a first biological signal of the first user, a second biological signal of the different second user, or both.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the biological signal of the at least one user comprises a heart rate, a breathing rate, a motion of the user, or any combination thereof.

3. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a sensor communicatively coupled to the processor and configured to monitor the biological signal of the at least one user.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the sensor is selected from the group consisting of a piezo sensor, a temperature sensor, and combinations thereof.

5. The system of claim 3 , wherein the sensor is coupled to a mattress, a mattress cover, or a mattress frame.

6. The system of claim 3 , comprising two or more of the sensor comprising different types of sensors.

7. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a light, wherein the processor is further configured to send a control signal to the light to turn off the light based on the biological signal of the at least one user.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor:

(a) determines a sleep phase associated with the at least one user based on the biological signal of the at least one user; and

(b) adjusts the at least one angular position based on the sleep phase.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one adjustable section corresponds to a body region of the at least one user.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the body region is selected from the group consisting of head of the at least one user, a back of the at least one user, legs of the at least one user, feet of the at least one user, and combinations thereof.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor compares current biological signal data of the at least one user with historical biological signal data of the at least one user to detect a discrepancy.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the discrepancy is indicative of a sleep abnormality selected from the group consisting of snoring, sleep apnea, restless leg, and combinations thereof.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein, based on the detection of the discrepancy, the processor sends a control signal to the adjustable bed frame to adjust the at least one angular position.

14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to associate:

(a) the first zone with the first user; and

(b) the second zone with the different second user.

15. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

(a) when the first user is present, independently adjust a first angular position of at least one adjustable section of the first zone for the first user; and

(b) when the different second user is present, independently adjust a second angular position of at least one adjustable section of the second zone for the different second user.

16. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one angular position is set prior to a use of the adjustable bed frame.

17. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

(a) determine when the at least one user has fallen asleep; and

(b) if the at least one adjustable section is inclined when the at least one user has fallen asleep, send a control signal to the adjustable bed frame to adjust the at least one adjustable section to the rest position.

18. The system of claim 1 , wherein at the rest position the at least one angular position is at a 0° angle.

19. The system of claim 1 , wherein at the rest position the at least one angular position is not at a 0° angle.
