Things that came up when looking into reasons for new design (Alarm Clock for sleeping disorders)

Young People


Their bodies are also biologically set up to go to bed later than at any other age
Often with preferred sleep times of 1- 2 AM or later

ADHD


Many kids with ADHD also are naturally long sleepers
They will easily sleep 12-14 hours of every 24 unless someone wakes them up

Deep sleep


Deep sleep is indeed deep, the closest we normally get to natural coma
It's really hard to wake people up in deep sleep

The Mosquito or Mosquito alarm is an electronic device, used to deter loitering by young people, which emits a sound with a very high frequency.
