Sleep warning apparatus
First Claim
1. A sleep warning apparatus comprising:
- stimulation generating means for generating stimulation to a person before a warning is given to the person, the stimulation being used to take reaction of the person;
reaction detecting means for detecting the reaction of the person to the stimulation when the stimulation generated by the stimulation generating means is given to the person;
warning determining means for determining whether or not the warning is required to be given to the person depending on whether or not the reaction detecting means detects the reaction of the person to the stimulation; and
warning generating means for giving the warning to the person when the warning determining means determines that the warning is required to be given to the person, wherein the reaction detecting means detects at least one of behavior of the person and a biosignal as the reaction of the person to the stimulation; and
when the reaction detecting means detects the reaction of the person to the stimulation, the stimulation generating means automatically without manual intervention is stopped from generating the stimulation.

Abstract
A sleep warning apparatus includes a stimulation generating portion, a reaction detecting portion, a warning determining portion, and a warning generating portion. The stimulation generating portion generates stimulation to a person before a warning is given to the person. The stimulation is used to take reaction of the person. The reaction detecting portion detects the reaction of the person to the stimulation when the stimulation generated by the stimulation generating portion is given to the person. The warning determining portion determines whether or not the warning is required to be given to the person depending on whether or not the reaction detecting portion detects the reaction of the person to the stimulation. The warning generating portion gives the warning to the person when the warning determining portion determines that the warning is required to be given to the person.
