Ibis,
the hotel company that brought you the 'buttock-shaped plunger test'
and the 'human roller test', today brings you the latest innovation in
sleep technology. You can find out whether you are a tosser or a turner
thanks to a new Sleep Art app available to download free, which will
create art while you sleep.
The
Sleep Art app, available for new generation iPhones and the iOS 5 and 6
operating systems, captures movement and sounds from your night's sleep
and converts this data into virtual brush strokes so that when you wake
your sleep is a work of art. It is fun, easy to use and designed to
create a 'happy sleep'.
To
start the app, the user sets the alarm clock and plugs in their iPhone
before placing the iPhone on the mattress. As the user sleeps, the app
runs throughout the night recording the sounds, movements, vibrations
and senses of sleep through the app's motion sensor. The sleeper is
woken by Sleep Art's gentle alarm clock music and discovers the work of
art produced by his/her night's sleep. Users can chart their picture's
progress minute by minute on the screen to see how the art was created
during the night.
The art is
stored in a virtual gallery so that users can compare each night's
sleep and share with the friends and family via email or Facebook.
Ibis will be the first economy hotel chain to offer an entertainment app but it is not the first time that the hotel group has developed a product for sleep. Last year, after months of 'buttock-shaped plunger testing', 'human roller testing' and a sea of experts including doctors, sociologists and 'bed boffins', Ibis launched the Sweet Bed™ by ibis - specially designed bed and bedding - to ensure a happy sleep for guests around the globe.
The Sleep Art app is the virtual realisation of the Sleep Art robot created for ibis by ACNE in November 2012, which painted live art works following a motion sensor monitored night's sleep in a specially created bed that toured across Europe [http://www.facebook.com/ibis].

With
the creation of a new bed, nation-wide refurbishments of hotels and
creative innovations in sleep art, ibis is leading the way in the budget
hotel stay.
Thomas
Dubaere, Senior Vice President Ibis Northern Europe said, "A happy
sleep is at the heart of the Ibis customer experience. It is a key
pillar of the Ibis megabrand revolution. We have rigorously investigated
what ultimate comfort means for our guests and so invested in unique
beds to change their sleep experience.
The
Sleep Art app is free and aims to bring a bit of entertainment to
peoples' night's sleep wherever they nap and shows that Ibis can give
the best sleep in the economy segment."
