Built for the National Children's Science Congress

A smartwatch that protects your sleep, not your screen time.

Restwise pairs a radio-free ESP32 smartwatch with a companion website to build sleep-safe, break-aware routines for students juggling school, tuition, and homework — then makes sure the routine actually happens.

The Problem

Over-scheduled days are quietly costing students their sleep

Students juggling school, tuition, and homework routinely lose sleep and accumulate stress from over-scheduled, poorly-paced days. Most "smart" devices make this worse — adding more screens and notifications instead of solving the actual problem.

They also expose kids to constant radio-frequency emissions from BLE and WiFi radios that run all day, every day, on a wrist that never comes off.

Coming soon: real numbers from our ongoing survey of 100+ students — e.g. what share report under 7 hours of sleep on a school night.

Back-to-back schedules

School, tuition, and homework stack up with no built-in breathing room.

Sleep is the first casualty

When the day runs long, bedtime is what gets cut — night after night.

More screens, not less

Typical "smart" devices add notifications instead of protecting focus and rest.

All-day radio exposure

BLE and WiFi radios run constantly on a device worn on a child's wrist all day.

The Solution

One system, two parts — built to protect rest by design

A radio-free ESP32-based smartwatch and a companion website that build a sleep-safe daily schedule, enforce healthy breaks, and give a weekly view of how well the routine is actually being followed.

Zero radio waves

No WiFi, no Bluetooth, no cellular. All syncing happens over a wired USB connection — built to reduce all-day EMF exposure for children.

Distraction-free by design

School mode locks the calculator and other non-essential apps during class hours — leaving only what a student actually needs.

Low-cost, repairable hardware

Built on an approachable ~₹1000 bill of materials — not a sealed, disposable gadget.

Features

Everything the routine needs, split across watch and web

The watch guides the day in real time. The website plans it, checks it, and reports on it.

Live timetable display

Shows the current period and what's coming next, pulled straight from the schedule set on the website.

Auto school mode

The calculator and other non-essential apps lock automatically during school hours.

Enforced breaks

After a continuous study stretch, the watch prompts a mandatory break the student must acknowledge before continuing.

Guided breathing mode

A simple animated breathing exercise for quick stress resets, especially useful before exams.

Wind-down mode

30–45 minutes before bedtime, the watch shifts to a calm, low-stimulation screen and locks distracting apps.

Stress-log button

A quick way to log a stressful moment, building a private record over time.

On-device compliance logging

Tracks breaks taken, breathing sessions completed, and wind-down adherence — stored locally until synced.

Schedule builder

Parents and students enter school, tuition, and home time blocks in a few clicks.

Sleep-window calculator

Automatically flags if the entered schedule doesn't leave enough sleep time for the student's age group.

Smart break insertion

Automatically adds breaks between long study sessions instead of letting them run back-to-back.

Weekly compliance dashboard

Shows break adherence, sleep-window adherence, and stress-log patterns over time.

AI-assisted revision planner

Generates a prioritized study plan before exams based on subject and weak topics — with one hard rule: it never suggests cutting into sleep.

How It Works

Plan it once. Live it every day.

1

Plan

Enter your routine on the website. It builds a sleep-safe, break-aware schedule automatically.

2

Sync

Connect the watch via USB. The schedule and settings transfer over — no wireless needed, ever.

3

Live it

The watch guides the day, enforces breaks and wind-down, and logs compliance — synced back next time you plug in.

Validation

Sized before it was designed

Backed by a survey of 100+ students on current routine, sleep, and stress patterns — used to size the actual problem before designing the solution, not after.

  • ✓ Current daily schedule & time-block breakdown
  • ✓ Self-reported sleep duration on school nights
  • ✓ Frequency and triggers of exam-related stress
  • ✓ Existing break and wind-down habits, if any

Structured routines. Real rest. Zero radiation.
