CAD REFERENCE
Curved form
The R80 curved V6 body is a ready CAD reference; on the electronics side, the sensor, processor, power and memory architecture is defined. Development continues so the sensors and battery can work together inside this form.

CURRENT PROTOTYPE / V6
The form is progressing.
The details are maturing.
We’re working on the optical section.
IN DEVELOPMENT
Optical contact
The depth of the contact area and the sensor position are still being refined; pulse and SpO₂ measurement performance will be validated with physical tests.
NEXT STEP
Physical testing
Internal volume, optical contact and assembly tolerances are being evaluated together. CAD fit does not mean measurement performance has been validated in the final product.

Zzip and Pro are in development; these features do not represent validated product performance.
About this comparison
Zzip columns show planned features. Snoring reduction, moving you without waking you, and measurement performance have not been validated yet.
Other devices do not all share the same features as a single product group.

A custom PCB inside the mouth band, with sensors that complement one another. Zzip is being developed to turn the signals produced overnight into a clear morning summary.
Measurement goals are in development. Final accuracy and usage performance have not been validated yet.
SENSE. RESPOND. KEEP THE RHYTHM.
One step beyond
just watching.
Zzip is being designed to turn sensor data into a meaningful response: gentle movement support through the night, and a wake-up moment that suits you in the morning.
01 / ACTIVE SNORING TRACKING
DetectVibrationMovement
A small vibration.
A calmer night, as a goal.
Zzip aims to detect snoring events with its microphone and encourage a change of position with gentle vibrations. The goal is to support movement without waking you and help reduce snoring.
The motion sensor tracks whether you turn after a vibration. In the app, snoring, vibration and turning events can be viewed together.
A vibration motor is not part of the current design. The effect on not waking you and on reducing snoring has not been validated yet.02 / SMART WAKE-UP
Close to your time.
Responsive to your rhythm.
TARGET ALARM07:00Start the day in your own rhythm.

Assessment window06:4507:00
If no suitable moment is found, the target time applies.
How is it planned to work?
By evaluating movement, breathing and other available sensor data together, the aim is to find a suitable wake-up moment within the window before your chosen alarm.
Design goal: if no suitable moment is found or there isn’t enough data, fall back to the alarm time you set.

ZZIP + APP
The night is yours.
The meaning is in your pocket.
Connect over Bluetooth. Review your night recordings. Track pulse, SpO₂, breathing, movement and snoring in one app.
- Live sensor panel and connection status
- Night history and measurement charts
- Battery, charge and pending recording info
- Snoring, vibration and movement events
- Planned smart alarm and Pro EEG analysis
ZZIP PRO / MODEL IN DEVELOPMENT
One more layer.
Toward brain signals.
The Pro model adds EEG to the multi-sensor architecture. With an electrode extension coming out of each side of the body, the goal is to analyze signals related to the brain’s electrical activity.

The same approach. More signal with EEG.
In addition to Zzip’s sensors, one EEG electrode extension from each side and a brain signal analysis goal. The plan is to evaluate EEG data together with the other night signals.
The EEG circuit is not part of the current design. Two electrode extensions do not mean two validated independent EEG channels. The reference, contact quality, electronic front end and analysis methods will be developed; there is no claim of validated sleep staging or diagnosis.

COMFORT IS WHERE DESIGN STARTS.
Carry the technology.
Not its weight.
Thinness, low weight and adapting to facial movement: we approach Zzip’s hardware with these three goals together.
Flexible connections.
A thin, flexible board approach that follows the curve of the body has been adopted. Component placement and real bending behavior will be validated with physical tests.
Balanced layout.
Placing the battery and electronics side by side reduces stacked thickness. The cell is kept away from the areas that flex.
Considered contact.
Rounded edges, a flexible outer body and sensor contact areas are being developed together. Skin compatibility and all-night comfort will be evaluated with physical tests.
GOOD CONTACT. CAREFUL MATERIALS.
Close to your skin.
Focused on comfort.
Choosing a high-quality, skin-friendly adhesive for placement around the mouth and balanced hold is one of the core goals of the design. We consider reliable hold, gentle removal and sensor contact together.
- A contact layer that adapts to facial movement
- Adhesion strength balanced with skin comfort
- Material selection to be evaluated for night use
01What exactly is Zzip?+
Zzip is an electronic night-tracking device being developed in a mouth-band form. It is planned to include a custom PCB, sensors, a rechargeable battery and a Bluetooth connection inside its body. The V6 CAD model defines the R80 curved outer body; full integration of the electronics into the body is still in development.
02Is the optical sensor placement finished?+
Not yet. We are working on the depth of the optical section, the contact geometry and the sensor position. Pulse and SpO₂ measurement quality will be validated with physical tests.
03Is Zzip on sale right now?+
Not yet. Zzip is in development. Price and release date will be shared once product tests and final material selection are complete.
04Do I need an app or a charger?+
Yes. Zzip is being designed with a rechargeable battery and a Bluetooth connection. The iOS app under development will show sensor data, night recordings and device status. The charging dock and battery life will become clear with the final design and power tests.
