AB  - The purpose of this investigation was to find a new alternative for sleep dissuasion in residential units guards who work 
night shifts, with the aim of improving their  welfare in relations to their work, reducing the chances of falling asleep and 
using distractors that carry labor sanctions. For the development of this project, to start, a bibliographic investigation was 
conducted to help understand related topics, it was followed by interviews with professionals from different areas related to 
the study of the  work environment and observation in context to residential unit guards. A construction of a guard night 
shift experience journey map was created and with the findings, a new process of ideation started. Finally, the approaches 
were  validated  with  market  tests  on  users  other  than  guards  and  with  guards  through  role-playing  activities,  after  the 
feedback a new approach was built, which has been iterated as the context has stated. During this process a premise was 
found on which the entire approach was based, the guards are interest in a tool or solution that helps them to cope with sleep 
during  the  night  shift;  Basic  requirements  also  arose,  such  as:  the  approach  must  take  into  account  that  it  is  for  a  night 
context, it cannot be a direct distractor for the guards, the stimuli cannot provoke over alert and it has to be design based on 
sober aesthetics due to the security and surveillance context. 
 
Awaken  is  a  solutions  that  brings  together  alternatives  around  sleep  that  had  not  been  considered  together  before.  The 
diagnosis of the sleep phase (or wakefulness) through HRV and multisensory stimulation using certain stimuli that increase 
neural activity in those who receive it.
