Dubai-based student creates ‘smart pillow’ to cushion deaf people against mishaps

The pillow connects to smartphones, door bells and security systems to deliver alerts in case of fires or similar emergencies.
The American pursuing a Master’s degree in the Emirates has created the product after facing challenges due to hearing impairment himself. Instead of audio alerts, the pillow uses alternative techniques including light to warn users.
