OK Google, help me sleep better? The new Nest Hub smart display has built-in tech to help
The newest version of Google's Nest Hub promises better sound – and better sleep. But consumers having trouble sleeping may be more drawn to its new built-in Sleep Sensing technology that uses Google's Soli motion detection chip – first used in the Pixel 4 smartphone – to know how long you slept. The Soli-driven radar does not identify specific bodies or faces, but will watch your movements and breathing, as well as track when you snore or cough to build a pattern of your sleep – and what could be interrupting it.
