Shop the top picks for sleep tracking devices to understand your sleeping habits

WATCH: What to limit before bed to get good sleep 

As smart technology becomes more and more ubiquitous, people are more aware than ever of their habits. Phones track screen time, wristbands track steps, and other gadgets can track heartbeats and other body functions. The next frontier is tracking your body while asleep.

What do sleep trackers do and how do they work?

A new and emerging group of sleep rings and bands allows users to track the statistics of their sleep. From REM to deep sleep, brands like OURA will show you exactly how much sleep you are getting each night.

Sleep health, according to the Center for Disease Control is imperative. The CDC says that getting seven to eight hours of sleep for adults under the age of 60 is crucial in terms of immune system health, weight regulation, and several other health benefits.

The CDC says interruptions in your sleep and trouble falling asleep can be damaging to sleep health. That’s where the sleep rings come in. With brands like WHOOP, users can easily track information that may be inaccessible or hard to track in the early morning after a night’s sleep. Next, users can view sleep data on most mobile devices to better understand their sleep patterns and work to improve their sleep.
