Sleep is an essential part of our lives and daily sleep monitoring is crucial for maintaining good health and well-being. Traditionally, the gold standard method for sleep monitoring is polysomnography using various sensors attached to the body; however, it is limited with regards to long-term sleep monitoring in a home environment. Recent advancements in wearable and nearable technology have made it possible to monitor sleep at home. In this review paper, the technologies that are currently available for sleep stages and sleep disorder monitoring at home are reviewed using wearable and nearable devices. Wearables are devices that are worn on the body, while nearables are placed near the body. These devices can accurately monitor sleep stages and sleep disorder in a home environment. In this study, the benefits and limitations of each technology are discussed, along with their potential to improve sleep quality.
