ADJUSTING ALARMS BASED ON SLEEP ONSET LATENCY
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- detecting, by a computing device, performance of sleep ritual activities associated with a user of the computing device;
determining, by the computing device, that the user has performed the user'"'"'s sleep ritual;
in response to determining that the user has performed the user'"'"'s sleep ritual, determining, by the computing device, that the user intends to sleep at a first time;
detecting, by the computing device, biological signals corresponding to the user sleeping at a second time;
calculating, by the computing device, a sleep onset latency duration based on the first time and the second time; and
adjusting, by the computing device, a scheduled alarm time based on the sleep onset latency duration.

Abstract
In some implementations, a mobile device can adjust an alarm setting based on the sleep onset latency duration detected for a user of the mobile device. For example, sleep onset latency can be the amount of time it takes for the user to fall asleep after the user attempts to go to sleep (e.g., goes to bed). The mobile device can determine when the user intends or attempts to go to sleep based on detected sleep ritual activities. Sleep ritual activities can include those activities a user performs in preparation for sleep. The mobile device can determine when the user is asleep based on detected sleep signals (e.g., biometric data, sounds, etc.). In some implementations, the mobile device can determine recurring patterns of long or short sleep onset latency and present suggestions that might help the user sleep better or feel more rested.
