Under the wave of consumption upgrading, the public’s awareness of health has continued to increase. Household sleep pillows have gone beyond the simple attributes of traditional bedding and have become a key factor influencing public sleep health. Currently, research on the comfort of sleep pillows in both domestic and international fields mainly focuses on traditional indicators such as height and pillow shape and the correlation analysis of subjective comfort. However, studies on the biomechanical response to pressure comfort, as well as physiological responses such as skin temperature and humidity, and brain electrical sleep signals, are still relatively scarce. There are many factors affecting the comfort of sleep pillows, including material properties, size parameters, usage environment, individual differences, and subjective perception experience. Compared with traditional research that focuses on a single dimension of indicators, this study is based on the multi-dimensional influence mechanism of sleep pillow comfort experience, attempting to integrate the physical mechanical signals, physiological response data, and subjective psychological perception corresponding to each key influencing factor, and proposes a "physical support - physiological response - sensory evaluation" multi-modal evaluation model. This model can achieve a comprehensive quantitative evaluation of the efficacy of sleep pillows and has certain application value in personalized sleep pillow adaptation and dynamic sleep health monitoring. The sleep pillow efficacy evaluation system constructed in this study provides systematic and practical theoretical support and method references for the research and development innovation of sleep pillow products, performance evaluation, and sleep health management.
