That could really help people with sleep disorders. Many accidents happen daily at work and driving because of sleep disorders.

Great...now I can be sleep deprived and have the cognitive level of an alert Monkey...:D well... its an improvement I guess.

seriously... Its sounds very promising....It does have the potential to save lives also...

the flip side...there was an article recently that a study showed that getting less than 5 hours of sleep a night would increase your chance of dying from a heart related ailment by something like 80%:( ...now at least you'll be alert when it happens.:bandana:
