Systems and techniques for enhanced sleep tracking, monitoring, and conditioning are discussed herein. A device may be couplable to, or integrally formed with, a piece of furniture (a “nearable”) receives sensor data from one or more sensors accessible to the device and, based on a determined stage of sleep, may actuate one or more devices for conditioning sleep. In some examples, the nearable may be configured to receive a smartphone such that one or more processors and sensors of the smartphone may be used to perform at least some of the processes. When configured to receive a smartphone, the nearable's cavity may retain the smartphone via a spring mechanism to create an additional button for user interaction, as well as be shaped to minimize an amount of electromagnetic radiation (including light emitted from a screen) of the smartphone, while optimizing sounds output from the smartphone. |
