Abstract
A sleep training clock can be configured to assist in sleep training. The sleep training clock is shaped like a robot having a face, a torso, and two legs; two LEDs disposed in the face and three LEDs disposed in the torso; and a digital clock face disposed in the torso. Additionally, circuitry for performing sleep training is configured to determine whether the electronic device is in a wake state and turn on the two LEDs disposed in the face and turn off the three LEDs disposed in the torso in response, determine whether the electronic device is in a sleep state and turn off the two LEDs disposed in the face and turn on the three LEDs disposed in the torso in response.
Claims20
An electronic device, comprising:
- a body shaped like a robot including a face, a torso, and two legs;
- five light emitting diodes (LEDs), wherein two of the LEDs are disposed in the face and three LEDs are disposed in the torso;
- a digital clock face disposed in the torso;
- and
- circuitry configured to perform sleep training, wherein the circuitry for performing sleep training is configured to
- display a time on the digital clock face,
- determine whether the electronic device is in a wake state based on the time,
- in response to a determination that the electronic device is in a wake state, turn on the two LEDs disposed in the face and turn off the three LEDs disposed in the torso,
- determine whether the electronic device is in a sleep state based on the time, and
- in response to a determination that the electronic device is in a sleep state, turn off the two LEDs disposed in the face and turn on the three LEDs disposed in the torso.
The electronic device of claim 14, wherein the circuitry is further configured to
- animate the three LEDs disposed in the torso to illuminate one at a time in a predetermined direction as if the LEDs are circling the torso in response to transitioning from the wake state to the sleep state.
A method for performing sleep training using an electronic device having a body shaped like a robot including a face, a torso, and two legs, five light emitting diodes (LEDs), wherein two of the LEDs are disposed in the face and three LEDs are disposed in the torso, and a digital clock face disposed in the torso, the method comprising:
- displaying a time on the digital clock face;
- determining whether the electronic device is in a wake state based on the time;
- in response to a determination that the electronic device is in a wake state, turn on the two LEDs disposed in the face and turn off the three LEDs disposed in the torso;
- determining whether the electronic device is in a sleep state based on the time;
- and
- in response to a determination that the electronic device is in a sleep state, turning off the two LEDs disposed in the face and turn on the three LEDs disposed in the torso.
