Glo Pillow: Wake Up, Sleepyhead!

Posted on April 27, 2007 Under Design

I’m not what can be referred to as a “morning person.” I no longer own an alarm clock, thanks to my tendency towards hurling them indiscriminately across the room – causing damage to walls, furniture, pets and people alike. The Glo Pillow seeks to remedy such occurrences through a more gentle approach. A combination of memory foam and a series of LED-integrated fabric layers, slumber is theoretically broken by a gentle “glowing” that simulates a sunrise, as opposed to traditional shock-inducing bleating) allowing for a more peaceful start to your day. An RSA Design Directions Award winner in ’06, the induction-charged pillow is controlled by a panel of six “soft buttons” on the side; the wireless transmitter allows free movement for those who are prone to tossing and turning. Not that you’ll be doing a whole lot of that after you discover what a “good night’s sleep” actually entails.
