## Abstract

An AI-based contactless sleep analysis system and method are disclosed. The sleep analysis system comprises: a smartphone that downloads a sleep analysis application from a server, collects and transmits sleep sound information of a user in real time to the server, and receives a report of AI-trained sleep analysis results from the server; and at least one smart home appliance that is spaced apart and located around the user, simultaneously collects and transmits the sleep sound information to the smartphone, and provides a customized sleep environment based on the analysis results to the user who is response to a control of the smartphone.
