Protection of user sleep through evaluation of a disturbance event against a sleep priority state and/or a sleep priority period

A method for protecting a sleep of a user, the method comprising:

• receiving a physiological data that comprising at least one of a gyroscope data, an accelerometer data, a temperature data of the user, and a sound of the user, and optionally receiving an ambient temperature of an environment of the user,
• wherein the physiological data is received on one or more sensors of an earphone;
• extracting an indicator data that indicates at least one of a respiration of the user, a heartbeat of the user, and a macro movement of the user,
• wherein the physiological data transmitted to a coordination hub;
• determining a physiological feature of the user comprising at least one of a respiration rate of the user, a heart rate of the user, a heart rate variability, and a macro movement period of the user;
• assembling a feature data comprising the physiological feature;
• determining a cognitive state of the user based on the physiological feature;
• recording the cognitive state in association with a sleep session data;
• receiving a communication notification that is at least one of a call notification, a message notification, and an app notification;
• querying the sleep session data;
• determining that the user is in at least one of a sleep state and a pre-sleep state;
• and
• denying passthrough of the communication notification to a speaker of the earphone to protect the sleep of the user.

A system for managing a sleep of a user, the system comprising:

• an earphone comprising:
• a speaker of the earphone,
• one or more sensors configured to gather a physiological data of a user, and
• a network interface controller of the earphone;
• a coordination hub comprising:
• a housing of the coordination hub,
• a processor of the coordination hub,
• a memory of the coordination hub,
• a network interface controller of the coordination hub, and
• a memory of the coordination hub comprising:
• an indicator identification subroutine comprising computer readable instructions that when executed:
• extract an indicator data from a physiological data received from the one or more sensors of the earphone of the user, the indicator data indicating at least one of a respiration of the user, a heartbeat of the user, and a macro movement of the user,
• wherein the physiological data is received from the earphone on a low energy protocol;
• a feature extraction routine comprising computer readable instructions that when executed:
• determine a physiological feature of the user comprising at least one of a respiration rate of the user, a heart rate of the user, a heart rate variability of the user, and a macro movement period of the user, and
• assemble a feature data comprising the physiological feature;
• a cognitive state determination routine comprising computer readable instructions that when executed:
• determine a cognitive state of the user based on the physiological feature, and
• record the cognitive state in association with a sleep session data;
• a communications agent comprising computer readable instructions that when executed:
• receive a communication notification that is at least one of a call notification, a message notification, and an app notification;
• a sleep protection routine comprising computer readable instructions that when executed:
• query the sleep session data,
• determine that the user is in at least one of a sleep state and a pre-sleep state, and
• deny passthrough of the communication notification to a speaker of the earphone to protect the sleep of the user,
• wherein the network interface controller of the coordination hub configured to communicatively couple to the earphone;
• and
• a network communicatively coupling the earphone to the coordination hub.
