Abstract
An apparatus for sleep tracking may include (i) a sensor that detects whether a wearable device is being worn by a user, (ii) a mode-switching module that switches the wearable device between an active mode when the sensor detects that the wearable device is being worn by the user and a sleep-tracking mode when the sensor detects that the wearable device is not being worn by the user, (iii) a detector that, when the wearable device is in the sleep-tracking mode, detects signals associated with sleep behavior of the user, and (iv) a sleep-tracking module that, when the wearable device is in the sleep-tracking mode, monitors the user's sleep based at least in part on an evaluation of the signals associated with the sleep behavior of the user. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
