Checking your smartphone while you’re laying in bed can be such a hassle, I mean you actually have to reach all the over and grab it. This is where Nintendo thinks it can be of assistance as the company has patented a new “quality of life” device that will project everything that on your smartphone onto your ceiling so that all you need to do is open your eyes to check it.

The patent designs dug up by NeoGAF detail how Nintendo’s under-wraps wireless sleep monitor may operate. The device looks like a cross between a digital alarm clock and an iPhone charging dock.
