BED HAVING FEATURES FOR DETERMINING AND MODIFYING TEMPURATURE OF A SLEEP ENVIRONMENT

A distal-proximal temperature-gradient of a sleeper is determined. A bed has a mattress. Temperature sensors are in an array. Each sensor is configured to: sense surface temperature of the sleeper of the bed, transmit, to a controller, temperature readings. The system also includes a controller may...

Zusammenfassung:A distal-proximal temperature-gradient of a sleeper is determined. A bed has a mattress. Temperature sensors are in an array. Each sensor is configured to: sense surface temperature of the sleeper of the bed, transmit, to a controller, temperature readings. The system also includes a controller may include a processor and memory, the controller configured to: receive, from each of the sensors, temperature readings at a particular time, access, for each temperature reading, a corresponding weight-value, determine the distal-proximal temperature-gradient for the sleeper at the particular time using the temperature readings and the corresponding weight-values.
