Sleep is essential to human life. However, many people suffer from sleep deprivation, which adversely mental and physical health and results in poor productivity and even accidents. In this study, we propose the "ZZZoo Pillows" to help resolve sleep deprivation. This system comprises a huggable pillow with a built-in balloon supplied with air so that it replicates the breathing motion of a human chest. Furthermore, warm water circulating within the huggable pillow attempts to reproduce body heat, thereby giving the feeling of sleeping alongside another person. We aim to resolve sleep deprivation problems by improving emotional stability and increasing the time spent in deep sleep by providing the user with a sense of ease.
