NEW 2007! DayBreak Duo Dawn and Dusk Simulator
|

Why Waking up is Hard to Do? 8 of 10 adults struggle to get out of bed in the morning, and have problems sleeping at night. Traditional alarm clocks wake you with a sudden jolt of noise that interrupts your final stage of sleep, causing a condition known as sleep latency that makes it hard to get out of bed. The effects of sleep latency can last all day.
A Better Way to Wake Up — Naturally - Your body knows when to go to sleep and when to wake up from the light/ dark signals it receives. Unlike the sudden jolt of your alarm clock, Daybreak Duo® provides a natural sunrise that wakes you gradually. Using TrueDawn™ technology, the Daybreak matches the actual light patterns of a natural sunrise.
Sleep Better Too - Your Daybreak Duo can help you get more from your sleep cycle in two important ways. First, waking up gradually to sunrise simulation allows your body to fully complete its final sleep stage and sets your body clock’s sleep timer so that you fall asleep more easily at bedtime. Second, your Daybreak Duo also provides sunset simulation, a gradual decrease in light that tells your body clock to slow down by replicating nature’s signal that it’s time to go to sleep.
Get Up on the Right Side of your Day - Begin every morning with your Daybreak Duo, and see how easy it is to get going. Research has shown that getting the right amount of light before you wake can get your body clock started properly, and help you start your morning refreshed.
Works with Your Existing Bedside Lamp - The Daybreak Duo works with the bed-side lamp you already have in your bedroom, making it easy to install and use immediately. You don’t need additional accessories, and you don’t have to redecorate!
TECHNOLOGY
A Better Sunrise with TrueDawn™- The Daybreak Duo® sunrise/sunset simulator is powered by TrueDawn technology that matches a natural sunrise. Our engineers measured the light intensity changes that occur from darkness to full sunrise, so that the Daybreak could provide the most accurate sunrise simulation possible.
The Natural "S" Curve - It turns out that the light changes during a sunrise are not "linear" (like a dimmer switch). Instead, light increases gradually following an "S" curve, also know as a sigmoidal curve.
|
|
Natural Sunrise increases very slowly at first, allowing a gradual awakening. |
|
The Daybreak's TrueDawn technology matches natural sunrise allowing your sleep cycle to finish. You awaken gradually without sleep latency. |
|
Alarm clocks disrupt the last stages of sleep, increasing sleep latency and delaying alertness. |
|
Simulating this "S" curve takes more engineering and expense to recreate, but the results are worth it. Daybreak Duo helps you wake up the way nature intended, which improves your mood, boosts your energy and even helps you sleep better by setting your cycle properly.

Touchscreen Simplicity - Nothing is more frustrating than fumbling with buttons in the dark. Daybreak’s illuminated touch screen gives you quick, easy access to all the programmable features so that changes are a breeze.
Smart Illumination - To ensure the best visibility, the Daybreak brightens automatically during the day, then dims the display at night so as not to disturb your sleep.
