Developing understandable and actionable sleep data visualizations

Good sleep quality is an important attribute to great physical and mental health. However, majority of research suggests that people do not follow the suggested sleep duration and consequently suffer from chronic sleep disorders. In order to help people understand their sleep and the reasons for bad sleep, sleep data visualizations have been developed, however the goal was to find how to develop them in an understandable and actionable way. The sleep data visualizations have been tested and after that put in an interactive interface prototype. The prototype has been tested with six participants. The prototype has been found to be easily understandable by the participants, as well as actionable.
