Abstract

See full text

Electronic filters are applied to analog signals representative of eye movement and head movement, obtained from detectors attached to a simple headgear, to provide satisfactory information for automatically reporting an individual's sleep state. The filters determine whether there has been substantial eye and head movement in a given period. Each filter then generates binary output signals representing movement (or the absence of it). Noise filters and a comparison filter are then applied to the binary output signals to predict sleep state; REM sleep; NREM sleep; or wakefulness.
