Abstract

Sleep plays a fundamental role in the life of every human. The prevalence of sleep disorders has increased significantly, now affecting up to 50%of the general population. Sleep is usually analyzed by extracting a hypnogram containing sleep stages. The gold standard method polysomnography (PSG) requires subjects to stay overnight in a sleep laboratory and to wear a series of obtrusive devices. This work presents an easy to use method to perform somnography at home using unobtrusive motion sensors.
