Japanese company invents sleeping box in standing position

To create napping spaces everywhere, a Japanese company invented a standing sleeping box called Gireaffenap and installed them in cafes across the country.

According to Oddity Central (UK), the name Giraffenap is inspired by the standing sleeping position of giraffes . This invention aims to help users have space to rest after tiring working hours. With a unique design, people can take a nap in the Giraffenap sleeping box for about 20 minutes. Such short naps will help relieve stress, increase concentration, maintain memory, and improve work performance.

One of the main reasons why the Gireaffenap sleeping box is designed vertically is to save space . It is easier to install this device in small cafes and restaurants because they take up very little space. But that's not the only reason. Maintaining an upright position seems to make it easier for box users to wake up after each nap.

Each Gireaffenap sleep capsule has an alarm system that the user can set. The sleeping box also has support points for body parts - such as the head, buttocks, calves and feet, to ensure that the user maintains an upright position while napping. The sleeping box also has a height adjustment system so that anyone can comfortably sleep in the perfect position when using it.

The Gireaffenap sleeping box is available in two variants – a plain white model and a traditional wooden design. Both have excellent sound insulation, integrated ventilation systems, as well as various sound settings to help users fall asleep easily.

Giraffenap is currently installed in several cafes in Japan. If the sleeping box is received positively, this invention could appear in many other locations.
