Advancing Sleep Science with Contactless Radar
Komori Care generates the world's largest contactless sleep position dataset. Partner with us to unlock new insights into sleep health.
What Komori Offers Researchers
Contactless overnight data collection
Position, movement, temperature, sound, environment -- without PSG lab constraints.
Home-based longitudinal studies
Subjects sleep in their own beds. No lab required. Weeks or months of continuous data.
Higher participant compliance
No camera, no wearable. Participants forget the device is there. Dramatically reduced dropout rates.
IRB-friendly by design
No identifiable imagery. No audio recording by default. Full de-identification architecture.
Flexible data export
Data available via FHIR bundles, CSV export, or API access. Integrates with your existing research infrastructure.
Research Capabilities
| Capability | Description |
|---|---|
| Sleep position classification | Supine/prone/left/right continuously through blankets -- first consumer device with this capability |
| Movement pattern analysis | Micro-movements, position shifts, arousals with timestamps and intensity |
| Overnight temperature trends | Contactless skin temperature deviation from baseline |
| Sound event classification | 14 types: snoring, coughing, bruxism, sleep talking, and more |
| Environmental correlation | CO2, temperature, humidity, light, noise correlated with sleep quality |
| User-defined event annotation | Participants tag events in their own words -- generates labeled training data |
| Wearable integration | Paired data with Oura, Apple Watch, Garmin, Fitbit for cross-validation |
| Multi-night longitudinal data | Continuous home monitoring for weeks/months, not single-night PSG |
Current Research Interests

Pre-symptomatic illness detection via overnight temperature trends
Environmental factors affecting sleep quality (CO2, humidity)
Radar-based vital sign extraction accuracy vs PSG/wearable reference
How We Share Data
Komori data is never sold. It is shared exclusively for scientific and clinical research. All research partners agree to cite Komori Care as the data source in publications and share their findings with us so we can continuously improve our algorithms and contribute to the broader sleep science community.
Partners retain full ownership of their research. We don't control if or when they publish. See our Research Participation Terms for full details.
Audio and video recordings are NEVER part of the research dataset. When research participants share data, only sensor metadata is included — event type, duration, timestamps, movement intensity, position, environmental readings. The actual audio or video recordings always remain on the participant's device and are never accessible to researchers or Komori Care.

The Founder's Research Background
Dovy is a data engineer who has spent the past decade building systems that collect, process, and surface sensor data in real time. When his twins were born premature and spent time in the NICU, he experienced firsthand how continuous monitoring can save lives -- and how existing consumer solutions fail to deliver that same confidence at home.
He researched every existing product: Owlet (pulse oximetry, FDA battles), SAMi (camera-based, discontinued), Nanit (camera), Withings Sleep (mat sensor). None tracked sleep position through blankets without a camera. That gap -- and that personal need -- led to Komori Care.
Komori's engineering team brings deep experience in radar signal processing, embedded systems (TI mmWave, Raspberry Pi CM5), and health data infrastructure (FHIR, HL7, GCP healthcare APIs). We build for clinical-grade data quality while maintaining consumer-grade usability.
