HOW NORA WORKS Smart Nora is a contact-free snoring solution that’s designed to stop snoring without waking up the snorer or their partner. Nora’s Pebble, a microphone equipped with smart detection algorithms, listens for sounds of snoring. Upon detecting multiple snores, the Pebble activates the silent pump in the Base, to gently inflate and deflate the Pillow Insert. This slight and unnoticeable movement interrupts your snoring.

EFFECTS OF NORA WHY WE SNORE Snoring is the result of our airways collapsing as the upper throat muscles relax during sleep. When we breathe through the narrowed airway, we create vibrations that are heard as snoring. WHY NORA IS EFFECTIVE Nora detects early sounds of snoring and gently moves your head by activating a silent pump that inflates and deflates the padded insert sitting under your pillow.
