I tried to fix my faulty sleep tracking ring. What I learned was bigger than some bad data.

Slate  

When my partner got me a sleep tracking ring for my birthday, I was ambivalent. My partner had used the same sleep tracking ring for years and found it valuable, so I set my reservations aside, yearning for a REM renaissance. On the graph that showed time awake or in various sleep stages during the night, I saw only brief hiccups of wakefulness when I’d gotten up to pee. “Does your ring think you’re asleep whenever you’re awake but lying still?” I asked my partner, who has an older model. When I was awake in bed, I sometimes wiggled my left hand so the ring wouldn’t mistake my stillness for sleep.
