The Amazon Halo Rise comes with an ability to differentiate between different breathing patterns. For instance, if you are sleeping with your partner, it should be able to pick out your breathing from theirs, provided you stay closer to the device. The Halo Rise also comes with built-in environmental sensors to gather data on your room’s ambient light level, humidity, and temperature.

Lastly, the new Amazon sleep tracker is compatible with Alexa voice assistant. The company adds that you can “sync Alexa with the Halo Rise smart alarm to be woken up by your favourite song”.
