The Importance of Sleep

Every year, there are over 100,000 car accidents caused by sleep deprivation, along with countless work-related accidents. Recently more and more health studies have emerged exposing the dangers of getting consistent lack of sleep.

Sleep deprivation is linked not only to temporary health risks such as impaired judgment and motor skills, but to serious long term effects such as ability to heal, weakened immune system, growth impairment, obesity, heart problems, and even premature death.

What is SleepBot?

“SleepBot is a resource tool for users to manage their sleep schedules over mobile applications connecting to a web-based platform.”

Basic idea-- The first step to figuring out how to cope with lack of sleep is figuring out how much sleep you lack.

Step 1: Track sleep activity!

Tracking works in an easy to use punch in/out format

Today’s Sleep displays how much sleep you got today, including naps

Current Debt displays how many hours you are away from your target sleep goal

Support also provides links to further resources and websites such as the National Sleep Foundation

Sleep more!

Dr. Charles Czeisler (Harvard Medical School, American Board of Sleep Medicine) stated that “going without sleep for 24 hours or getting only five hours of sleep a night for a week is the equivalent of a blood alcohol level of 0.1 percent,” surpassing the legal limit for driving in most countries, such as the United States.
