REMzen Claims They Can Help You Sleep Better (Video)
Meet Jeremiah Scott, Co-Founder & CEO of Portland, OR, based Remzen. Their first product -- crowdfunded, of course -- is supposed to ship this October. It's an "intelligent sleep mask that collect sleep lab-type data but it also wakes you with light rather than sound, which Jeremiah says is more natural and better for you. Remzen started as a student project at Portland State University, but it is obviously moving toward the big time. Open Source? You'd think so, since Timothy met Jeremiah at OSCON. But there's apparently a financial backer or two who still need to be convinced that this project should be 100% open source instead of only halfway there.

This. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea and I have one of those breathing machines. But I never use it. I've tried nearly a dozen different masks but I couldn't ever get used to sleeping with any of them. Even if I could eventually fall asleep I would always pull it off my face in my sleep which would then wake me up since it would start making a loud sound.
