Abstract
A mattress includes one or more sensors. The sensor(s) may be positioned on a sleep surface of the mattress; for example, at locations where an individual's thorax and/or legs would be positioned when the individual assumes a sleeping position on the sleep surface. The sensor(s) may be positioned adjacent to an edge of the mattress, on the sleep surface or on the edge. A processor may be associated with the sensor(s) of the mattress. The processor may process signals received from the sensor(s) to provide information about the mattress, an individual on the mattress, and/or an environment in which the mattress is located.
