Even the most crippling insomnia is surely no match for the Gentle Wave lounge. Using a handheld remote, users can control a rocking motion that is designed to simulate floating in a lake. It can also be used to manage the intensity of the sound wave massage emanating from its dual 50-watt transducers. Combine that with a supine posture and memory foam chair, and your problems with insomnia will be replaced by the fear of slipping into a coma. However, at US$7,000, I will be sticking to drinking a few beers and falling asleep in the pool on a US$15 SpongeBob raft. [Hammacher Schlemmer via Likecool]
If getting a natural tan is on your summer to-do list despite all of the health warnings about sun exposure, a French company called NéoSun aims to make the process easier with their NéoSunMore lounge. Besides its futuristic look, the chair can be rotated 360-degrees with simple movements of the armrests. That means you can get a nice even tan without having to constantly move your chair to follow around the sun as it moves across the sky. There is no word on pricing or a release date for the NéoSunMore—or whether a much needed “flip” feature will be implemented in the future. [NeoSun via Born Rich]
