Apple has put a lot of interest in improving the way we sleep, with this we refer specifically to the way in which the Cupertino company has integrated different functionalities into operating systems fully aimed at these tasks. The first example was "Night Shift", the change in the color tone of the screen, which according to scientific studies, would allow us to rest better once we had been using the device before sleeping; The second example is "Sleep", the special function of the alarm application that modifies our sleeping habits with the intention of waking us up at the best time for it. Nevertheless, The engineer responsible for this initiative have just left Apple, what was the reason that motivated them?
We are not yet clear if he has really been fired or has been his own free will. The fact is that Roy Raymann arrived at Apple in 2014, and today he decided to move to SleepScore Labs, as Vice President of Sleep Science. Young Raymann began developing applications for the Apple WatchAs well as the way in which the watch could monitor our sleep, however it seems like a losing battle, Apple was not able to create a really innovative monitoring of the sleep of the users, and ended up buying recently Beddit, a company that produces sensors and software system aimed at this type of task.
Raymann has extensive experience in this field, having also worked for Philips, but the reality is that the Apple Watch has not achieved what was intended of it in this area. What is also not clear is how Apple is going to take advantage of the technologies it gains from the acquisition of Beddit, but that's another story to tell later. The truth is that the sleep expert from the Cupertino company has left the ship without making much noise.
