There are a lot of cases where people may have to be apart due to one reason or another. Most of the time it is because of work-related assignments, limiting the time that couples can be together. And once that happens, you can bet that a lot of people would be encountering sleepless nights in the process.

But Osaka University professor Ishiguro has come up with an interesting cushion, something that looks like the massage pillows many of you may have come across. The Hugvie Cushion is based on a Telenoid robot and actually contains a microcontroller and vibrators that will match the characteristics of a long-distance located loved one.

The Hugvie cushion also contains two vibrators, which produce a throbbing sound like a heartbeat, and the pulse gets faster or stronger, depending on the volume and tone of the caller’s voice. If you want one, be ready to shell out $60 for it. The Hugvie Cushion is available from Vstone.

Pillows would sometime require the proper temperature to make them suitable for sleeping and while air conditioning or electric fans would somehow try to do that, the Polar Pillow may be something soothing to render proper shuteye.

It is really very easy to pick out a pillow that you can get to cuddle or have alongside your bed when you want to sleep better but if you want something better, why not a personalized one? The concept may not necessarily be new, seeing photo shops like Kodak doing the trick to you. But you may want to check out these throw pillows from Instagram.

The pillows are called the Stitchagram, a new way to share memories or have them by your side. Through their website, you can easily design and produce your customized pillow/s based on your liking. With that, you simply pick out the pictures you may like, have them embedded on the said pillows and you get a memorabilia for your collection or something that can come in handy when you sleep or as a plain home decor you can place by the sofa or a chair.

This time around, we find a pillow made for the dog lovers. The pillow is called Albert, the French Bulldog Pillow. While it doesn’t seem to offer anything fancy compared to the other pillows we have posted lately (like the vibrating and music-integrated ones), the pillow should be a simple and functional one to use.

The pillow comes with a neatly printed image of French bulldog which acts as the cover of the lightweight woven cotton pillow. The pillow should be neat for travel, by the couch or of course by your bedside which should be great for people wanting something to cuddle and hold on to when they want some sleep.

Here are some pillows which seem to have gained inspirations from Origami. Apparently, they come in polygonal patterns to render that unique feel that some people would prefer as far as pillows are concerned. And for the folks who have some beddings of the same nature, the whole design may be what is left to complement and complete their overall setup.

However for a stiff price of $87, you have to wonder if these Polygonal Pillows are worth it. We all know how wise it is to invest and come up with useful relaxing and sleep aids in the form of pillows but for a price and queer design, some people may think otherwise.

Ordinarily, seeing these Ghostbusters plush toys would not be something that people would want their children or them to have if you are talking about better sleep. However, take out that paranormal cliché tied up to them and you may just find them lovable to hug especially for people who simply cannot sleep by simply lying down.

There is Slimer and the Marshmallow Man, two characters that would initially scare you at first sight but certain to be something cute and huggable once you understand who they really are. And aside from being huggable, they do come with some extra features.

Squeezing a Stay Puft Marshmallow Man will result in the Ghostbusters theme song played back while Slimer will belch out a familiar gross noise, adding some color when you want some harmless playtime.

These Ghostbuster Plush Toys cost about $19.99 each.

This is not the first time we will be seeing a specialized pillow made to help people sleep better. Aside from looking like a standard but overgrown teddy bear, this cuddly robot pillow from the Kabe Group looks to address the issue of sleep apnea as well.

The cuddly pillow comes with a movable robotic arm which gently nudges a person to his side when his breathing is interrupted and snoring starts to occur. To monitor a person’s breathing abnormalities, there is a pulse oxymeter worn on a person’s finger which determines when the blood oxygen dips or when breathing has stopped.

Design-wise, the pillow does leave a lot to be desired but considering that the cuddle robot pillow remains a concept, you can imagine further enhancements that are bound to be applied to it along the way.

The shirt fits most t-shirts bigger than a Kids’ Large size but the sad news is that they seem to be out of stock now over at ThinkGeek. It could be a great gift as well.
