Patent number: 11395902Abstract: A system for waking a user up by a stimulus, wherein the stimulus is adapted to vary according to an intensity curve. A user interface is adapted to receive user preferences, such as a desired wake-up time and a preference indicator. The preference indicator indicates whether the user prefers to be more alert after waking up or to have a longer sleep. An alarm is used for providing a stimulus to the user and a processor is used for determining a stimulus intensity curve for the alarm. Determining the stimulus intensity curve is based on at least the user preferences.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2020Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Petrus Johannes Bremer, Giulia Costa
