MIT researchers have come up with a way to wirelessly capture data on sleep
patterns from the comfort of a patient's home. Their laptop-sized device
bounces radio waves off a person, and a smart algorithm analyzes the signals
to accurately decode the patient's sleep patterns.

The device could allow experts to monitor someone's sleep for weeks or months
rather than once every few months in an overnight lab. Apart from enabling
physicians to diagnose and study sleep disorders, they could also use it to
understand how drugs or illnesses such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's
disease, epilepsy, and depression affect sleep quality.
