'intelliPillow' by Innvo Labs Adjusts Depending on Sleeping Position
Meghan Young — January 18, 2012 — Lifestyle
'intelliPillow' by Innvo Labs is a self-adjusting headrest that will reduce the need for different pillows depending on the various positions a person sleeps in. It features inflatable air chambers that are filled or deflated in response to the position a person is currently in. The sleeper rests on a thin pressure-sensitive mat that senses how he or she is currently sleeping. Even if that person tosses and turns throughout the night, intelliPillow by Innvo Labs will adjust accordingly on its own.
intelliPillow by Innvo Labs will not disturb the sleeper either. The inflation and deflation is done slowly and quietly to ensure that he or she doesn't wake. It will be available as early as 2013.
