A new organization set up to encourage hotels to become more deaf-friendly has chosen the Agrippa pillow alarm to show hotels how easy it is to make adjustments to their services to attract more customers.
Heary, based in the Netherlands, which offers training and products to the hotel industry, has undertaken research suggesting the majority of hotels offer no additional options for those who are deaf or hard of hearing, in the event of a fire evacuation.

Agrippa pillow alarm notifies the user if the fire alarm sounds by vibrating under the guest’s pillow
Robert Schouten, the director of Heary founded the company while studying at Hotelschool The Hague. During his work experience in hotels, he became aware that the service provided by hotels for people with hearing difficulties could be vastly improved.
The portable Agrippa pillow alarm notifies the user if the fire alarm sounds by vibrating under the guest’s pillow, which is triggered by its signature listen-and-learn technology that learns the sound of the alarm.
