Interactive battery-powered pillows have been designed to communicate comfort to a loved one when he or she is not right with you.
The pillows are perfect if loved ones are away for work or in a long distance relationship. Also, I guess if you have had a disagreement and are in separate rooms for the night – this might help merge you back together!
Probably not a pillow designed to be left out for anyone to take their frustrations out on it! Just have regular pillows for that! On that note – if you have a regular pillow and it does sound like things are going on inside it, but it is not an interactive one – time to change it! Change your pillows every 6 months or earlier if their colour is not white and the stains are permanent and do not budge with hand washing (machine washing depending on the pillow) and drying in the sun.
I think interactive pillows are a lovely idea and kids could use it too. I have found two sites with information on interactive pillows.

The final site below was about monitoring your partner’s heart beat. Each person has a special pillow on their bed and goes to sleep wearing a wireless ring sensor. When one half of the couple goes to bed, the pillow on the other’s bed begins to glow softly. If one places their head on the glowing pillow, one can instantly hear the real-time heartbeat of their lover and feel closely connected. I didn’t like the yellow look of the pillow – it reminded me of when a pillow looks like it needs to be thrown away – I am sure if I had one to look at properly (not on the screen) the glow would be golden and sensuous!
