At this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), we want you to get some sleep.

It’s not an easy thing to do, what with all the lights, activity, and general party atmosphere of Vegas.

We at Team Zeo are certainly not immune to the excitement as well; our sleep takes as much of a nosedive as anyone else’s.

Whatever happened Friday at CES 2011, we were in no shape to use Zeo.

But sleep is a necessity, even in Vegas.  And we want to give you as much of it as we can.

So that’s why decided to build a bedroom for this year’s CES.

Inspired by a very sleep deprived gentleman who demo’d Zeo in our booth last year, we decided to give you a better – and more comforatable way – to catch some much needed Zzzzs.

We’ve equipped our booth with a built-in Sleep Lab (i.e. a bedroom) complete with a Tempur-Pedic bed (provided by the good folks at Tempur-Pedic) . For your slumber, the room itself has been darkened and has white noise to block out the ambient sound.  There’ll also be a sleep mask, and earplugs in the Sleep Lab for extra peace and quiet.

Zeo's CES 2012 Booth Complete with Sleep Lab

But that’s not all.

There’s also a Zeo unit for you to test out and get your own sleep report.

Only in Vegas

Last year at CES, something very interesting happened.

On the last day, a gentleman was wandering around the show, looking a little bleary eyed. He visited our booth and, to be honest, we had trouble understanding him because while he spoke some English, French was his primary language.

It turned out that the gentleman was attending the show but somehow didn’t have enough nights booked at the hotel he was staying at and thus had nowhere to stay for the rest of the show. This caused the man to wander around Vegas for almost 36 hours, during which time he got absolutely no sleep. As a matter of fact, it’s very likely that his sleep deprivation caused his language skills to suffer.

After we heard his story and explained what Zeo does, he asked if he could catch a few Zs in our booth and try out Zeo while he did.

We happily obliged and he fell asleep while sitting on a stool in our booth.

And the crowd went (quietly) wild.

People loved the fact that here was someone, in the middle of all the hubbub, catching a much needed nap.

They also loved the fact that they could see Zeo in action for themselves.  Not just screen shots, but actual sleep being recorded right in front of their eyes.

And they wanted to try it out.

Zeo Presents Live, Real-Time Sleep Data at CES 2012

We decided to include a Zeo in our Sleep Lab exactly for that purpose.  You’ll be able to come on over, test Zeo out for yourself, and get a copy of your sleep report to show everyone afterward.

But what about those on the outside?  How will they know that Zeo’s working?

Inspired by those streaming their sleep data over the internet, we’ve set up a live feed from Zeo to a large monitor on the outside of the booth so people can see which sleep stage you’re in–without getting too close to disturb one’s slumber or privacy.

That’s right.  There will be live, real-time sleep data on display at CES.  This is your chance to really see what sleep looks like in action.

If you happen to be at CES 2012 (January 10 – 13) and could use a nap – or just have questions about sleep – stop by booth 2817 in the North Hall to get your sleep on.

If you want to find out more about Zeo come on by as well. We’ll be there to answer any and all questions you might have.

So remember:  make sure you get your sleep at CES this year.  Stop by booth 2817 in the North Hall for that much-needed R&R.

See you there!

There’s great stuff out in the internet.

The problem is that you need to find it.

Sure, a quick search can do wonders, but how often do you find really amazing stuff simply by typing in a keyword or phrase?

Chances are, the really great stuff – the sites you bookmark and check out all the time – came to you via a friend or someone you trust.  They just instinctively knew that you would enjoy that link.

Sharing is Caring

You’re not really friends with someone who’s stingy.  You might be nice or polite to them, but chances are, they’re not going to be the first person you tell about something new, fun, or exciting.

Those who you are friends with, now they’re the ones you send a quick email off to with that great tidbit.  You want to get their opinion on something you read, or just share a laugh over the latest viral video.  And because you took the opportunity to share something you liked with them, they respond in kind.  Pretty soon, you’re swapping information and advice so quickly it seems that you’re always getting something awesome.

We’re here to do the same with with you about sleep .  It’s such a big (and admittedly nebulous) topic that it’s easy to miss all the good stuff out there (and there’s a lot out there).  So to help you out, we’re going to up our content sharing with you – and remove some of the legwork on your end.

How?

Starting today, we’re going to feature four (4) awesome sleep posts by a non-Zeo writer each month,  as part of an initiative called “Zeo Featured Blogger.”  These posts will be published in the Knowledge Center each week, and pushed out to you via our RSS feed.  To get your hands on this as soon as it’s published (and again, save that whole “searching” business), subscribe here.

What’s on tap for December

This month, we’re featuring stellar content from Hypnagogia, a blog devoted to exploring what really goes on in our bodies while we sleep.  If you ever wanted to see how sleep apnea data corresponds to Zeo data, you don’t want to miss their first post “Apnoeas, Me?  My Baseline AHI“.

Here’s a quick taste; you can find the full post here:

I also noticed that when the oxygen desaturations due to apneas were compared to the Zeo hypnogram, that like my son’s, they were clustered around REM sleep.

The top line is my oxygen level

Remember:  to get each post as it comes out, subscribe to our Knowledge Center feed here.  You’ll get piping hot content each week, not junk, ads, or any other obnoxious pieces of spam.

How You Can Join in the Fun

Great friends share.  Sure, it might take a little bit to get started but after you do it a few times, it comes naturally.

As a company, we’ve (publically) been in the sharing business for two years.  Like most newbies, we first thought that we could do it all for ourselves, all by ourselves, all the time.  But if you’re just sticking to what you do, that’s not really sharing; that’s bragging.

We don’t want to toot our own horn.   We want to toot your horn.

We want to share your stuff here, as a Featured Blogger.

This initiative to all of you who write about sleep.  If you have a great idea that you want to share with others, tell us.  We’ll help you out by publishing your find here on myZeo.com.  We’re not asking to own your content, or have exlusive rights to it, or pass it off as our own.  No.  We just want to share your good news, your great find, with others.

This is your chance to reach all of your friends in the sleep community.  To get extra insight into what people like you think, and how they’re unlocking their own sleep mysteries and discoveries.

You don’t even need to have a Zeo; just a story, a question, or part of a journey.

To particpate in the great share, send a quick email to mystory@myzeo.com with a link to your blog or site, and a quick into about what you want to share.  I’ll personally read and respond to each email; I’m looking forward to reading what you send.

Again, you don’t need a Zeo to write about sleep, or even share a great story.  Just send us an email – and thanks for sharing!

Hear ye, hear ye! Zeo will be in the greater Washington, DC area on December 5-7!

That’s right, Zeo will be attending the 2011 mHealth Summit at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, MD.  We’ll be in the Qualcomm Wireless Health Pavilion – kiosk Q29 – along with other companies in the mHealth industry.

According to Wikipedia, “mHealth (also written as m-health or mobile health) is a term used for the practice of medicine and public health, supported by mobile devices.”

In particular, the mHealth Summit strives to:

“brings leaders in government, the private sector, industry, academia, providers and not-for-profit organizations across the mHealth ecosystem to advance collaboration in the use of wireless technology to improve health outcomes in the United States and abroad.”

Since Zeo is in the business of providing sleep advice and support to people on the go, our fearless leader, Dave Dickinson (President and CEO), will be there along with guest apperances by Jay Althoff, our Chief Development Officer, and Jeremy Dalnes, our VP of Sales and e-Business. They’ll be be bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, and ready to talk with you about pretty much anything that is sleep and mobile health related.

Also, if you haven’t gotten a chance to try our new Zeo Mobile Sleep Manager or have questions about it, you can come by our booth to check it out and ask any questions you may have.  We’ll also answer any questions about Zeo Bedside and sleep management tips as well

So Remember:  From December 5 – 7, 2011, Zeo will be mHealth Summit in the Qualcomm Wireless Health Pavilion, kiosk Q29.

Hope to see you there!

Hi all; Andi@Zeo here.

Admittedly, it’s been a while since I wrote a meaty “what’s going on” post here.   Keith@Zeo stepped in last week to let you all know that we’ve got a new site and that we’re going to be moving some Zeology features there.

Rest assured, I haven’t abandoned you, dear readers.  In addition to reading your feedback on Facebook, Twitter, and Zeology, I’ve been up to my eyeballs in designing and building a new site to make it easier to find the information you need to manage your sleep and improve your life.

You know, the little things.

Today, I want to let you know that I’m here to help guide you through this new site.  I’ll tackle the forum in this post, and follow up with additional posts about our new website’s features, such as Expert Answers and User Stories.

4 Things That Rock About the New Zeo Forum

I’m pleased to announce that our forum is up and running on our new site.  Our old forum certainly did its job admirably, but it was time for an upgrade.

I’m also pleased to say that with this new Forum you can easily:

1. Pick up where you left off in the old forum
2. Find support information, including expanded product FAQs and trouble shooting tips
3. Connect with other developers, self-improvers, and Zeo users
4. Access it no matter where you are on myZeo.com

To get there, click on the”forum” link here on Zeology; you’ll be instantly redirected to its new location under the Community Tab on myZeo.com

All threads are there, so you should be able to find the conversation you last had with a fellow Zeolot.

We also imported all our user data from the old Zeology site into our new site, just to make life a little bit easier for you. 

To post, log into myzeo.com in the upper left hand corner by entering your email and password.  If you can’t remember it, simply click “forgot password” and a reminder message will pop up in your email.

We’ve also made it easier to find the forums you need, no matter where you are on our new site.  Click on the “Community” tab in the main nav bar and you’ll notice that there are links to our main forum (Community Forum) and topics as well as the Support and Developer forums.

For the Support Forum, we even included our Customer Service contact info in the left hand nav bar – just in case you need it.

And a Few Things We’re still Working On

However, you’ll notice that there are few things missing.  Like avatars.

If you had an avatar on our last forum, it didn’t make it to the new one.

Same goes for images and hyperlinks.

The only thing I can say is that porting content from one website to another is messy.  As a digital editor, I can’t tell you how much this drives me up the wall – and how I wish it wasn’t so.

However, I’m adult enough to admit that said mess is my mess.  It’s my job to make sure that our content is not only top notch, but functions according to user expectation, and the forum is part of that equation.

Rest assured, I and a whole host of others are working 24/7 to bring this up to your high expectations.  Seriously.  We’ve got a team of developers who are hard at work while you sleep and then we pick up where they left off the next morning.

I’m asking you to hang in there for just a bit longer.  We’ve got the house built, installed the appliances, and got rid of the air mattress and the take-out Chinese.  Now we’re working on painting the walls, adding the photos, and making this place a home.  Specifically, your home.

If you run into any funny business, let me know. I’m here to make it better.

In the end, I think you’ll really like how it all comes together.

Thanks again for your patience with all of this.  You guys rock.

Aw, shucks.

Every time.  You do it every time.

Just when I think I’m turning into a cold, soulless robot, full of data points and little else, you go and melt my heart.

You’ve taken this little device that we made – that originally started as souped up Altoids tin – and held it close.

Used the data to motivate yourself to make small yet meaningful changes.

Talk and talked and talked about the power of sleep in your life – and changed the overall conversation.

You are now all part of something bigger than just your ZQ score.  You’re part of a revolution in health, wellness, and how we quantify it – and I just want to say “Thank you”.

The examples of your awesomeness have been many; I only want to highlight a few that have come in over the last few days.  It’s good stuff and I think everyone will be able to learn, grow, and benefit from it.

Here’s to You, Children of the Revolution

Complete Guide to Tracking Your Health & Fitness Online from Greatist

Thank you for all that you do.  For what you’ve done.  And for what you’ll go and do tomorrow.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Ah, Fall.  Another chance to start things anew.

As with any fresh start, this sense of new beginnings also applies to heath, wellness and – you guessed it-sleep. During those long days of summer you might have done some or all of the following:

• Let your sleep schedule “relax” a bit and got up when you felt like it, or stayed out more often.
• Said “what the heck” to stopping at the clam shack for fried clams, or getting that summer evening’s ice cream in.
• passed on that walk, bike ride, or run during those really hot and humid days – and never made it to the air conditioned gym like you said you would.

Whatever you did this summer, don’t beat yourself up over it.  Bad vibes are terrible motivators.  Instead, use this transition time to get your fall on the right track.

To help you out, we’ve partnered with BodyMedia for their 25 Days of Wellness Giveaway. 

Starting tomorrow (9/7/11) BodyMedia will be giving away a bevvy of items to help you as you build a better lifestyle.  A new item will be given away each day for 25 days, so enter today for your chance to win:

Gee Andi, what do I get?

How about a Zeo?  We’ve got two to give away – one on 9/11 and one on 9/27– so don’t miss out.

You can also sign up to win a BodyMedia FIT, a WiThings scale, and Zumba Fitness classes, among other items.

Best of all?  You don’t need to buy anything to enter.  Just sign up here on BodyMedia’s Facebook page for your chance to win.

So remember:  You can win a free Zeo to help jump start your fall fitness plan and be 25 days closer to a better you, all in one fell swoop.

Not a bad way to begin a new season.

Andi (ZQ: 86) is the editor of Zeology. By tweet or by post, email or Expert Answer, she makes sure people get the information they need about sleep.

Biological sex, that is.  The kind that operates within your body, affecting everything from blood pressure, to hormone production, to sleep.

We like to say that it doesn’t matter, that we’re all equal – until it does.

A recent Wall Street Journal article was just another reminder that sex, indeed, does matter.

Men are From Mars; Women are from Venus

Humans have long been grappling with sex and its sibling, gender.  We’ve argued back and forth about what differences there were between the two, and how that translated into social roles, work roles, cognitive abilities, physical abilities, communication skills, and who makes a better parent.

It’s possible that our long tortured history with this question has also spooked us a bit.  Just like race, biological sex was long used as justification why someone couldn’t do something.  Bringing it into the conversation, understandably, raises a number of red flags.

Exhibit A - How we don't want sex to be used.

But to completely ignore it – to say that it has little or no effect on biological functions like sleep – is missing the point.  In fact, bringing sex into the equation might be a good thing.

Sex is the new X Factor

In many different fields, it’s becoming clear that  sex and sex differences are playing a greater role in research.  More and more scientists are looking at how sex differences affect the brain, cells, organs – even how the body handles certain types of drugs, foods, and pharmaceuticals.

Such actions appear to be influencing sleep researchers, who are now asking questions like:

• Do men and women use sleep differently in memory processing?  If so, what does this mean for learning abilities – and our testing methods?

• Do men and women experience similar events – like insomnia- differently?  If so, where within the body do those differences play out?

• Do men and women have circadian rhythms of different lengths? If so, what does it mean for bedtime routine?

We at Zeo are doing our part to help, diving deeper into our DOZER database and looking how how sleep stacks up among men and women.  For instance, we presented a poster at this year’s APSS conference on how sleep phases change based on age and gender. (Download Full Poster).

Sleep based on Age and Sex

It’s a also study we couldn’t have done without your help. Just to get a fraction of this information across different ages and sexes would have taken tremendous effort on any researcher’s part.  So don’t thank us – thank yourself every time you upload data.  Your efforts are paying off, big time.

In short, the more all of us do and share research like this, the better we will all be at tackling the sex question. Just like age revealed itself to be a key component in understanding sleep, sex is poised to do the same.

So, what will you get?  A poster is nice – but a little something more in exchange for sleep data would be better.

How about more sleep tips, strategies, and information tailored to you?  Not just to your age and occupation, but also to your sex.   Information that take into account sex related issues like hormonal changes and hot flashes – not just that they happen, but how they play out and what you can do about it.

Sounds pretty good to me – but why don’t you weigh in below?  It is, after all, your data.

Tell us what you’d like to see done with this information here in the comments or on our forum. We’re all ears.

Recently, it seems that tons of new and existing companies, industry movers and shakers, and others wired to the digital life have come to us with this idea:

Shouldn’t all of your health data be in one place? Put it here (with us)!

We’re all for that–but what do you do once all that data’s in one central spot?  Are you just going to leave it there and let it collect internet dust?    As Adam Bosworth of Keas recently said (and it well) :

People don’t want to store data; they want to have fun.

I’d like to take that one step farther and argue that people also want to set and achieve their goals–and they want an online platform that helps them do just that.  At Zeo, that’s our main mission. We want you to achieve your goal of a better night’s sleep, and reap the rewards that it brings.

Let Me Have it All

One of those rewards is a more balanced life.  It’s what we all crave in this modern, hectic world.  More time for friends and family, more time for ourselves and our development, and an inner peace to carry us through.  Taking control of your sleep is one (key) way to achieve a sense of balance–that Power Down Hour™ really makes you put down the laptop and quit working– but what about the other factors?  How can one pull all the pieces together and make them work?

Fortunately, two of our API pals have just the thing to help you out.  Even better?  Both work with your Zeo sleep data as well.

GravityEight Launches Wellbeing Platform

We’re proud to announce that our pals at GravityEight are going holistic.  They want to help you achieve wellbeing – but not just the sort of wellbeing that comes from being healthy.  They want you to have the wellbeing that comes from amazing relationships, solid finances, and meaningful work.  Gravity Eight aims to be your dashboard and partner on eight key vectors for well-being.

More importantly:  they just launched their product to the public after a lengthy private beta, so sign up here for your scorecard.

We love this because it’s a customizable, whole person approach that has the potential to be an extremely powerful and positive influence on our lives.  If you’re looking for that central command dashboard to get your life in order and up to speed, definitely check it out and keep Gravity Eight on your radar screen!

Runkeeper Launches Health Graph and Open API

As if that wasn’t enough, we’re pumped to announce that things just keep getting better at Runkeeper.  Like GravityEight, they’re going for the whole enchilada when it comes to health and wellness.  But don’t take our word for it.  Here’s what Jason Jacobs has to say:

Imagine a system that can identify correlations between a user’s eating habits, workout schedule, social interactions and more, to deliver an ecosystem of health and fitness apps, websites, and sensor devices that really work, based on a user’s own historical health and fitness data.

Boom!  that’s what Runkeeper is delivering with their Health Graph.  Put all of your data on the digital table so you can do something with it.   Find correlations, find out what really works for you, and achieve your goals the way you always wanted to.

And not only Runkeeper can play this game – they have wisely opened up the system so that others can develop Health Graph apps that access all of this rich data and deliver consumer solutions.  We can’t wait to watch this one develop.

All in all, we are excited and proud to see our partners kicking ass and taking names – and look forward to more going forward.  We truly believe that people are smart, capable, and determined enough to succeed if they’ve got the right tools to help them out.

So don’t just let your data sit there, Zeo user.  Put it to work and reap the rewards; you’re future self will soon thank you for it.

Ben (ZQ: 75) is one of the co-founders of Zeo and company CTO. He’s passionate about keeping Zeo at the forefront of wireless health and technology, and about giving users control over their data.

Remember how we said that we love hearing from our readers, Zeo users, and people like you? Do you remember all the times you commented on our blog posts, liked our Facebook page, or posted to our Forum? We sure do.

In fact, we try to remember each and every person who’s reached out to us and said “here I am”. We like it because these interactions hold us accountable. They keep us on our toes and on task to help people understand the mysteries of sleep.

We especially love it when we get to meet you face to face and have a conversation. We go to places far and wide just to meet you and answer your questions. No venue is too small and no question too silly.

But we understand that you (and us) can’t be everywhere; that’s why there are video cameras and YouTube to help us out.

After Steve@Zeo gave his presentation at the Boston Quantified Self Meetup this past winter/spring, the moderator opened up the floor for questions. Some asked whether or not Zeo had any open APIs (we do) and if one needs to wear the sensor on the forehead (you do).

But there were also questions that we had never answered explicitly, such as how ZQ is calculated and why we started as a “wake you up smarter” company but became a “help you sleep better” company. While Steve@Zeo isn’t one of the founders, he’s known them since they first started way back when and has been involved in the science side for many years now. He’s also a pretty entertaining guy so this is one Q&A you don’t want to miss.

As always, we’d love to hear any comments you have about this past series. As editor, I’m pretty proud of it but if we’re going to do another one, we need to hear from you all. Some questions I have are:

• Was this helpful and chocked full of great tidbits and things you needed, or was it filler?
• Did you like the video and blog post format, or would you like to see more of one style and less of the other?
• Was the series too long or too short?

Your comments will help us make the next one even better, so let your voice be heard!

Until next time, loyal readers.

• Behind the Headband Pt 1: How Zeo Works

• Behind the Headband Pt 3: The Accuracy of Zeo

Andi (ZQ: 86) is the editor of Zeology. By tweet or by post, email or Expert Answer, she makes sure people get the information they need about sleep.

Let’s say that you’re doing an experiment 100 times and out of that 100 times, you got the results you needed for 80% of the trials.

But what if you wanted to take that 80% and boost it to 90%? What would you do? You’d probably refine your experiment to increase your precision of getting that magic result.

This would mean going back into the individual pieces of the experiments and figuring out what controls or changes would be needed in order to boost the numbers.

Despite all that, your experiment could still have the same level of accuracy as the earlier one. How is that possible?

Grading on a Curve

For something to be listed as “accurate”, you’d think that would mean “100% right, 100% of the time.” Maybe 98 or 99.9% to allow for the one fluke or two, but generally spot on, every time, with no errors or issues. Super high precision, too.  Otherwise, it’s a failure, right?

It depends.

If you’re talking about mechanical engineering–where precision and accuracy have to both be 99.99% or else something would blow up–then yes, being off from that 99.99% would be a failure.

But if you’re talking about human biology–where it’s impossible to have that type of precision and accuracy due to the fact that everyone is different–then what you’re striving for and what you think is acceptable will be different. You’re going to adjust your expectations accordingly and grade your results on a curve.

The Gold Standard

The current gold standard for sleep has an accuracy of 85% out of a possible 100%.  Given all the bodily functions that need to be monitored in order to perfectly determine sleep/wake and sleep phases–not to mention the fact that everyone is different– it’s highly unlikely that we’re going to hit that 100% with a one-size-fits-all method or procedure.

In terms of “grading on a curve” that 85% now becomes an A+.  It’s the new standard that other methods need to be compared against.

The technology behind Zeo means that based on the fictional 100%, we’re at 75% accuracy.  But when you compare it to the actual ceiling of 85% , we’re much better.  When you work it out, Zeo is 88% as good as the current gold standard.  That’s a B+ on our grade curve.

That said, since the metric that we’re fine-tuning our system to is only 85% as good as a hypothetical 100%, there are going to be outliers.  People are going to get different results due to small biological differences and due to the natural limitations of that 85%. But that does not affect the overall accuracy. When tested repeatedly, that B+ accuracy will stand as a general rule.

Know Thyself

What this all means for you, the Zeo user, is that your readings and results are your own.  They are a reflection of how your body works and interacts with Zeo. Sometimes, your readings could mean that you’re an outlier, but again, those are just based on averages as well.

Instead of getting hung up on the one offs, take comfort in knowing that there are a number of ways in which your brain signals and activity are similar to others.  Statistically, that’s what that B+ accuracy means.  It means that 8.8 out of 10 users’ brains will be similar enough for Zeo to know what phase of sleep you’re in.

What you then do with those numbers–and more importantly, what they mean to you–is for you to decide. Don’t worry, we’ll continue to give you real, science-based information to help you out, but your still going to make the final decisions.

Some will look at 30 minutes in Deep sleep and think it’s terrible; others think it’s great.

One camp thinks a more holistic and balances approach to life is the way to go, but others are hell bent on being as efficient and precise as possible.

Some will even think that based on the B+, Zeo sucks. They want only an A or better.  That’s fine, too–but a sleep lab night after night is awfully expensive, not to mention uncomfortable.

The question I have is: Now that you know the way the exam will be graded, what will you do?
