IntelliAlarm

Ease into your day with a new approach to waking up.
Yamaha's new IntelliAlarm wakes you gently with the audio source of your choosing, first filtering out uncomfortable high frequencies, then gradually restoring the full audio spectrum before beeping to ensure you are awake.
This function makes waking experience as comfortable as possible.

We have studied the effect of IntelliAlarm vs normal beep sound.
The research was done under contribution of Department of Medical Informatics, Tokyo Medical and Dental University Graduate School.

  • Participants were awakened both IntelliAlarm and beep, after naps of 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes for a total of 8 times. Subjective feelings just after awakening were measured with three psychological questionnaires. The differences between the subjective data with music and with an alarm tone were calculated and analyzed. The results indicate that awakening with IntelliAlarm was more comfortable than awakening with beep.
