This haptic mattress topper lets you feel a movie while you fall asleep during it

"Woojer is best known for its vibrating vests and belt straps that let you feel the sounds from games, movies, and music. Now the company has taken that same haptic technology and incorporated it into a new mattress topper called the Woojer Mat that will let you feel those same vibrations across your entire body to make what you're watching or playing feel more immersive. But the company claims that the Mat is also designed to reduce stress, relieve pain and tension, and improve the quality of your sleep."

"The Woojer Mat is available now for $799 through the company's online store, but is currently discounted to $699. It's described as a mattress topper but unlike those memory foam pads that stay permanently atop your mattress and under your sheets, at 30-inches wide the Woojer Mat is narrower than even a twin-sized mattress and is instead designed to be unfolded and used only as needed. It's not a permanent bedroom upgrade."

"Underneath an outer layer of breathable fabric is thin padding embedded with six haptic transducers capable of producing low frequencies up to 250Hz. The mat connects to any device that's compatible with headphones and speakers using Bluetooth, USB-C, or an analog audio cable, including your smartphone. If you want to continue to listen to a movie, song, or game while their audio is being turned into soothing vibrations, the mat can wirelessly connect to headphones or you can plug them into a built-in amplifier using a cable."

The Woojer Mat is a 30-inch-wide, foldable haptic mattress topper that delivers low-frequency vibrations across the body using six embedded transducers (up to 250Hz). It connects to devices compatible with headphones and speakers via Bluetooth, USB-C, or an analog audio cable and supports wireless headphone passthrough or wired connection to a built-in amplifier. The mat pairs with a mobile app offering a rich library of vibroacoustic sessions for back pain relief, relaxation, and mental clarity, and includes onboard buttons for volume and intensity control. The product is priced at $799 (discounted to $699) and is sold online. Claims of wellness benefits have not been independently verified.
