US Researcher Invents World's Most Annoying Alarm Clock

An unsnoozable alarm clock that refuses to let you stay in bed because it does not have any snooze button has been invented by a US researcher.

If it is unplugged, a battery takes over. As wake-up time approaches, it is simply impossible to reset the alarm time.

About Sleep Disorder
Sleep disorders can either be having difficulty in getting sleep or dozing off at inappropriate time.

Invented by Paul Sammut, a 25-year-old engineer who lives in Hoboken, the gadget could be the world's most annoying alarm clock.

Once it goes off, to stop it you must get out of bed, go into the kitchen or bathroom, and punch the day's date into a telephone-style keypad. That's the only way to stop the loud 'ding-ding,' designed to sound like a customer angrily banging on a concierge bell at a hotel, News 24 reported.

He started working on the gadget because he was finding it difficult to get up and make it to work on time after college.

About Sleep Disturbances
The physical, emotional and hormonal changes that occur in women during puberty, menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and menopause can cause Sleep Disturbances

"I wanted to make something that would essentially force me to get out of bed when I wanted to get out of bed the night before," said Sammut.

"And I was thinking about ways of doing it and I thought about how in high school I had the perfect solution to this, which was my mother, and how she would, if it was time for me to wake up, force me out of bed."

Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorders - Types, Causes, Health risks, Diagnosis, Treatment, Prognosis
Circadian rhythm (also known as sleep/wake cycle or the body clock) is a biological process that follows an internal cycle of roughly 24 hours.

He built the prototype in his free time and uses it every day.

"Now I wake up before it goes off," said Sammut.

Sleeping Disorders
How many times have you stayed awake in the dead of the night counting sheep? If it is fairly often then you could be suffering from a sleep disorder!

"I subconsciously fear it and know I have to get up." However, he did acknowledge that there is one way to stop the alarm without getting out of bed.

"You could smash it," said Sammut.

But since it comes with a price tag of 350 dollars, it would be a really expensive way to sleep in.
