Frank Ehners, has designed el ZULO (spanish for ‘the hideout’) to allow employees to hideout while on the job.
The expression ‘power-nap’ was coined by Cornell University social psychologist James Maas. Supposedly, a short power-nap terminates before deep sleep takes places but, still revitalizes the subject from drowsiness.
The el ZULO privacy pod is controlled by biometric fingerprints to customize the positioning of the knee-rests, seat, and chest pad. It's the ideal napsule for snoozing on the job.
