What are they? They're essentially headphones you can use comfortably while sleeping. SleepPhone was created by Wei-Shin Lai, an American doctor who had trouble sleeping. Back in 2007, as an on call family doctor Wei-Shin Lai would often get calls late at night. She would often listen to music while using earbuds or headphones and it would often get uncomfortable or simply be awkward to sleep in. She decided to get very thin high quality speakers by seeking out the help of a local Small Business Development Center in Pennsylvania and was referred to Bucknell University's engineering development service.
