Patent number: 11097079
Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product to optimize sleep quality by inducing sleep stages. The method includes: determining a total sleep time; calculating, using the total sleep time, a cycle duration for a sleep cycle, where the sleep cycle includes a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sleep stage; calculating a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth stage time for the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sleep stages respectively; generating a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth external parameter for the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sleep stages respectively, where the external parameters are parameters to facilitate a transition between sleep stages; and executing the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth external parameters upon reaching the calculated stage time for the corresponding sleep stages.
