The Vibrating Alarm Clock Pillow
By Mike James - posted in Household Gadgets
Who can stand the sound of an alarm clock first thing in the morning. Although effective, it’s a jolt to the system, not to mention that it affects the sleep of everyone in the room from your partner to a newborn baby. The Vibrating Alarm Clock, currently being marketed in Japan, does away with sound. Instead, this pillow is meant to be the primary pillow that a person uses while sleeping. When the time comes to wake up, the pillow simply vibrates at the appointed time, thus waking you up in a more gentle manner.

I am hard of hearing and won’t wake up to alarm clocks so I put my phone on vibrate and put it in my pillow case under my pillow. Shakes the whole thing lol and always wakes me up =] Knew I shoulda patented that idea..

Hi Christina
Thanks for your comment, it’s nice to read your point of view on this gadget as something that could be beneficial for someone with a hearing impairment.
Make sure that the next time you come up with a great new invention that you follow through on it. You just never know where it will lead you.

Interesting approach. Hopefully this one really works for those who can’t wake up by themselves

I love this item. I sleep so hard I never hear the alarm clock besides the fact that I hate to get up and turn the alarm clock off. Also it looks like this pillow would help people with neck problems. I would definitely use this pillow.

is it possible to order this pillow I can’t read Japanese. last i heard dollars were worth more than yen. so it can’t be that expensive.

I’m not sure if this Japanese company delivers to the US/UK. If you use Google translate, you may be able to find contact information on the site…assuming they correspond in English.
You’re best bet might be Amazon, I did see a similar pillow available on their site recently.
