1. A sleep evaluation device comprising:
- a body motion detection device that detects body motion of a person being measured on a bed;
a first operable device that generates a timing information at a first timing at which the person being measured is positioned on the bed;
a second operable device that generates a timing information at a second timing at which the person being measured intends to go to sleep;
a discrimination device that discriminates a sleeping state of the person being measured based on a detection result of the body motion detection device;
said discrimination device further discriminating a predetermined sleep level of the sleeping state, said discrimination device setting a third timing in response to the discrimination of the predetermined sleep level; and
an arithmetic operation device that calculates a first duration which is a duration from the first timing to the second timing, and a second duration which is a duration from the second timing to the third timing.

Abstract
With an evaluation device, a sleep level of a person being measured is discriminated based on a signal input from a body motion sensor. With the evaluation device, when a go-to-bed button is operated at time T3, time T3 is stored as the go-to-bed time. When a good-night button is operated at time T4, discrimination of sleep level is started. Thereafter, when the good-night button again is operated at time T5, the discrimination of sleep level ends.

7. A sleep evaluation method that is executed on a sleep evaluation device including a body motion detection device that detects body motion of a person being measured on a bed, the sleep evaluation method comprising:
-
detecting, by the body motion detection device, body motion of a person being measured on a bed; generating, by a first operable device, a timing information at a first timing at which the person being measured is positioned on the bed; generating, by a second operable device, a timing information at a second timing at which the person being measured intends to go to sleep; discriminating, by a discrimination device, a sleeping state of the person being measured based on the detection result of the body motion detection device; discriminating, by the discrimination device, a predetermined sleep level of the sleeping state, and setting a third timing in response to the discrimination of the predetermined sleep level; and calculating, by an arithmetic operation device, a first duration which is a duration from the first timing to the second timing, and a second duration which is a duration from the second timing to the third timing.
