transport perceptual pod. designer: alberto frias. photographer: alberto frias
The Tranquility Pod is a multisensory biofeedback environment. This is the pod that uses pleasant sound, gentle vibration, and soothing light to transport the body, mind, and spirit to a tranquil state of relaxation. Designed by Alberto Frias, designer of the pods for Men in Black III. Handcrafted from fiberglass into a smooth, shiny gel-coat surface, the pod’s ellipsoid exterior blocks 90% of outside noise while its interior foci ameliorate music played from the integrated 80-watt, four-speaker sound system via an iPhone/iPod or smartphone. The system’s subwoofer generates gentle vibration through the bed, resonating through the body to impart restful harmony. The pod’s biofeedback system—an exclusive feature only available from Hammacher Schlemmer—uses a pulse sensor that synchronizes your heartrate with 50 LEDs housed in the pod’s inner perimeter that create ambient mood lighting for calming the mind. The LEDs change colors at your command from the built-in controller or wirelessly from an iPhone or smartphone app. The pod’s elliptical opening reveals a 76"-diam. ultra-suede-topped, memory foam cushion that covers an octagonal waterbed with two lofty ultra-suede pillows. The waterbed is temperature controlled (85-90° F) from a panel. Special conditions and guarantee limitations apply. 78" Diam. x 42" H. (350 lbs.). Price $30,000. www.hammacher.com/Product/12195
