This article aims to introduce a prototype design for a smart pillow that helps with snoring detection and treatment during sleep. The main purpose of the design is to present an effective solution for snoring without medication or invasive procedures, this device was low cost, and easy to use by individuals, which leads to both: sleep quality improvement and decrease in snoring. The results showed up to 75% decrease in snoring. The proposed design utilizes microcontrollers, sound sensor, air motors, air pads, humidity and temperature sensors. The air motors pumps air into the pillow to change the sleeper’s head position in order to reduce snoring when the sound sensor detects the snoring frequency while the microcontroller commands the air motors to fill the air pads accordingly.
