There are many ways to be woken up, although most of the time we rely on our clocks and our smartphones, both of which are more than capable of getting the job done. However in case you wanted a “smarter” way to wake up, not to worry as there are options for you guys as well, one of which is the Bonjour smart alarm clock that has recently launched on Kickstarter.

So how does Bonjour differ from a normal, more traditional alarm clock? For starters it can pull information about certain things in order when to best wake you up. For example it could learn about bad weather which could cause traffic jam, thus offering to wake you up early so that you won’t be late for work or school.

It can even connect and pair with other smart devices in your home, thus letting you do things like check and adjust your Nest settings with your voice, or to see if your home security system is all setup and enabled before you go to sleep. It also features artificial intelligence where the more you interact and use it, the smarter it gets and the better it can anticipate your needs.

If all of this sounds like features you wouldn’t mind having in an alarm clock, Bonjour is currently raising funds on Kickstarter. However at this time of posting, it has managed to raise close to $70,000 and has since exceeded its original goal of $50,000, but you can still pledge your support to it while the project is still active.
