Glo-Pillow: Every deepsleeper’s bestfriend

Say goodbye to whole day headache just because you woke at the wrong side of the bed?

Glo-Pillow is a technological breakthrough on pillows that utilizes an integrated fabric interface for setting the alarm. The time is displayed on the surface of the pillow using an LED grid inside the pillow.

Studies show that alarm clock and other means which are deem as violent and intrusive of making someone up, could disrupt sleep patterns and could induce fight or flight reaction.

In order to provide solution for this, scientists correlated the scientific findings that goes on a man’s sleeping stages and invent a gadget that could work well with it.

Forty five minutes before the alarm is due to activate, the pillow begins to glow. The light intensity increases gradually from 0 lux to 250 lux and simulates a natural sunrise.

The light emitted is sufficient to wake the body naturally – a positive and calming start to the day. Using light rather than sound to wake encourages the body to establish a healthy sleep rhythm, and make the day more productive and stress free.

Six SOFTswitch TM buttons control all of the pillow’s functions. A battery indicator glows green when the pillow is charging, and red when it needs charging.

The pillow is charged by induction – the pad rests on the bed below the pillow and charges when required. This allows the pillow to be wireless and move freely about the bed. As well as using the interface, the clock can be activated by pulling the entire control panel away from the pillow – this is for easy activation in the dark.
