Sleep Study of New Air Conditioner Technology

by | Oct 2, 2025 | Uncategorized

We recently completed a comprehensive consultation research project for Panasonic Malaysia Sdn Bhd, investigating how their new air conditioner feature technology affects sleep quality and cognitive performance. To provide rigorous, objective analysis, we incorporated Level 2 Polysomnography (PSG) testing. PSG is considered the gold standard for sleep studies, simultaneously recording multiple physiological parameters—such as brain waves (EEG), eye movements (EOG), muscle activity (EMG), and heart rate—throughout the night. This allowed us to analyze quality through various sleep parameters such as TST, Sleep efficiency, sleep latency, and NREM/REM cycles. This study was conducted across both nighttime and daytime to analyze the overall effect of the technology. We had the pleasure of presenting our detailed research outcome to the Panasonic teams, which included engineers, the marketing team, and directors, at their facility in Paparodmy Shah Alam.
