# Digital World: Wake Up Project

### THE PROBLEM
Online Research:
Every week 31% oversleep
from poll online, 31% oversleep weekly
for those who oversleep and use smartphone alarm / physical alarm clock to wake up oversleep for ~50mins
resulting in negative consequences: anxiety, being late etc
From a study conducted by French tech firm Withings, 57% of Americans hit the snooze button(go back to sleep after their alarm ranghttp://www.sleepreviewmag.com/2014/08/americans-snooze-button-withings/)
