Intelligent blanket controls the temperature on each side of the bed

Perhaps the greatest drama among many couples is the division of the blanket, as some feel warmer and others are colder, and so the cover keeps rolling from here until someone gives up the fight, in many cases the best solution is to sleep with separate covers.

To end this problem, the Canadian company Smartduvet has developed a duvet to create two climatic zones on the sides of the bed, a chill and a warmer one. The heated side can reach 23ºC and the warmest at 18ºC.

The effect happens due to an air-conditioning layer, which is between the fabrics of the roof and is divided into two chambers, leaving the temperature in the way desired by the couple . The cover can be controlled by means of an application installed on the cell phone, being able to leave the duvet programmed to warm the bed before people lay down.

In addition, it is possible to activate a mode that automatically changes temperatures throughout the night, so you do not have to worry about cold or heat during sleep. By 2016, the same institution had already created a bed that was arranged by itself, able to make the duvet unfold and fit the mattress without the owner's help.

Due to the costs, SmartDuvet promoted a financing campaign in internet, to raise 20 thousand dollars, but the product was very well accepted by the public and they already received approximately 200 thousand dollars.

In this way, the production of the cover is already being carried out and it is possible to acquire in the pre-sale of the brand for $ 199, about $ 700, plus the value of freight. Watch the video of how the blanket works:

Overwork, stress, insomnia, task accumulation, and sleep disorders are some of the most common villains of sleep deprivation. In addition, sleepless nights are related to the increased risk of sedentary lifestyle, alcohol abuse, depression and overweight or obesity. Sarah Chalmers, 46, has decided to take part in a study organized by Sleep School of sleep studies in London, UK, to find out what impact sleep habits have on the mind and body.

Does your personality type predispose you to stress?

Stress is something common and inseparable from our daily lives. "Today tension is part of our daily lives, but that does not mean that it has to be something bad," says clinical psychologist Fernando Elias José, a master in Human Cognition at PUC-RS. Stress can be positive, and the problem, in fact, is not in the tension itself, but in the way we deal with it.
