Naveen summarises it as “a non-invasive, low-powered edge device that monitors snoring and interrupts the user moderately through a haptic feedback mechanism”.
He writes:
“Snoring often indicates obstructive sleep apnea, a breathing disorder that causes repeated lapses in breath due to a blocked or collapsed airway during sleep. Despite being unaware of their snoring, many people suffer from sleep apnea, leading to under-diagnosis. As part of my project, I have developed a non-invasive, low-powered edge device that monitors snoring and interrupts the user moderately through a haptic feedback mechanism.”
The system is based on an Arduino Nicla Voice designed with a Syntiant NDP120 “neural decision processor”. This allows embedded machine-learning models to be run directly on the device, he says.
