Pillows are not just those plush things that you use to rest your head on when sleeping, they also have a lot of other uses that are quite important. The serve as communication devices, like when you use it to swat your brother on the head when he is being an idiot. Pillows also serve to let others know how you feel emotionally. The tear stains on your pillows would reveal you had an emotionally disturbing night. Taking communication of feelings and ameliorating relationships, pillows have reached a new level. The Relational Pillow is intended to be used as a device to increase communication of feelings between individuals and better their relationships. Developed in a collaboration between Sajid Sadi and Pattie Maes of MIT’s Ambient Intelligence Group and Amir Mikhak, the pillow has Wi-Fi connectivity that allows it to communicate with other pillows. The Relational Pillow has touch sensors that allow you to draw a smiley on the pillow which would then light up with the happy face. This would then be conveyed to the other pillow letting the other person know just how you are feeling at that moment.
