Very interesting stuff. I’ve used an Apple Watch for sleep tracking in the past and found it was terrible. It consistently said I got zero deep sleep, which is incorrect. I switched to a Garmin and though not perfect, the general picture looks a lot more normal. After seeing your video I’m remembering a conversation I had with Garmin about sleep where I mentioned that I move very little during sleep. He said that makes it difficult for trackers to score me and I’m thinking an Apple watch would struggle more due to its reliance on the accelerometer. Just a thought.

Do I understand correctly that a key determinant of it working correctly is to provide it with your sleep SCHEDULE. ahead of time? I ask because many people do not have set sleep/wake schedules or have a sleep disorder or other sleep problem. Fitbit is able to properly detect sleep/wake without doing this, even for naps (and catches the sleep stages if you are down for more than 3 hours).

I got mine configured to last at least 24 hours on average, and use it as a tool to tell time, find my phone in an instant, gets a small selection of notifications and messages, go the the gym without my phone, display my steps so I walk more, and set cooking times. I should prob track sleep, but I found set up to be a pain. Kept leaving sleep mode on and missing messages.

I third this. I wear a Muse S headband and its somnographs usually aligned well with the Dreem 2 headband I wore at the same time. (Dreem headbands are no longer consumer products.) I have yet to find a study anywhere that compares the Muse S somnograph with another clinical standard device.

@brianquigley1940 could you give us an honest review on the muse s? Do you think it's worth it? I'm an athlete and I'd really like to understand and nail my sleep better! (I also have a minor interest in lucid dreaming too)
@brianquigley1940Ай бұрын
@MMAneuver The somnograph is trustworthy. The device was initially sold as a meditation "helper". I also use it for that purpose. e.g. it shows me whether I nodded off during a session or was in the "zone". The recent update that shows brain wave bands (alpha, delta, gamma, etc.) makes a huge difference. I wore both a Dreem 2 (also used by Rob) and a Muse S for about six months (until the consumer Dreem website was taken down). The somnographs were usually very similar. The main differences were in deep sleep, which were not always perfectly aligned, and the Muse did not record short bathroom breaks on the somnograph. I also wear a Fitbit and Polar watch on my left arm... for the HRV. If I get a decent amount of deep sleep and my HRV correlates well on both watches as high, I know my body is well prepared for a long run. I have two issues with the Muse S headband. The sensory part of the headband wears out quickly. I've gone through FOUR replacements in ONE year, all covered by the warranty. They say they are working on an improved version. The second issue is that the company's primary target audience seems to be... how can I say this politely... the "crystal waving" crowd. e.g. the subscription gives you access to celebrity meditation gurus, etc. Their focus is not on sleep... except for the recent udpate, which gives me hope. You will find a lot of scientific references on their website. They also offer an SDK (software development kit) for people interested in accessing the EEG data, but it's only for iOs. If I could find a commercial EEG product dedicated solely to sleep, I would buy it. I would still use my Muse S for meditation. My guess is that the Dreem 2 and Muse S use very similar hardware. Mind Monitor is an Android app you can download for the Muse. You can monitor your brain waves in real time by bandwidth. I've used it to practice "flattening" my brain waves to train myself to quieten my mind as prep for going to sleep. You can save your data and process it... if you have the necessary coding/analytical skills/knowledge.
@brianquigley1940Ай бұрын
@MMAneuver I wrote an extensive response and it was deleted! Weird. The somnograph is trustworthy. The headbands wear out quickly within months. The battery only lasts 7.5 hours.
