Abstract
A smart bed automatically initiates a sleep sequence upon detecting the presence of an individual in a sleeping position on a sleep surface of the smart bed. Such a smart bed may include a mattress that defines the sleep surface, at least one sensor associated with the sleep surface, and a processor that communicates with the at least one sensor and controls one or more functions of the mattress. Initiation of the sleep sequence may include initiating one or more functions of the smart bed and, optionally, one or more functions of an environment within which the smart bed is located to help the individual relax and fall asleep.
