For the people who spend countless time doing work or some school work with their laptop, heading over to bed may not be their immediate option considering they may be too tired to stand up. So rather than sleep on a bare laptop, here is a solution that seems to get its concept from the usual airbags we see in modern cars.

The iSleep Laptop Pillow changes all that. By closing the laptop an air cushion blows itself up, which is connected via USB with your computer. The computer is in the “sleep mode” and air is blown into the pillow. The material is coated with Latex at the inside, so the supplied air can be kept inside for a longer time. By opening the laptop again, the air leaves the cushion through an integrated valve.

Additionally, you can enjoy music and a wake-up feature which occurs when the playlist you programmed is up. From that playlist alone, you can perhaps determine how long you want to sleep. Just don’t overdo it since we all know how many tunes you can store in your laptop and other storage devices.
