Thevibrator 20 preferably comprises at least an electric motor with a motor shaft, preferably coupled to an eccentric weight. A housing desirably contains the motor, the motor shaft, and the eccentric weight. An amplifier may be connected to the motor for control of vibration level. For example, as a sound volume of the entertainment media (not shown) increases, the power to the motor may correspondingly increase, thereby increasing the rotational speed or torque of the motor and the turning of the eccentric weight, thereby increasing the vibration. - In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the
pillow 10 is used in association or combination with afurniture piece 100 including, but not limited to, a chair, an ottoman, a couch or a sofa. Further, thefurniture piece 100 preferably includes an integratedinput jack 102 for receiving aconnector plug 22 of thepillow 10, such as shown inFIG. 2 . Likewise, auditory transducers, i.e.,speakers 104, may be integrated with thefurniture piece 100 for particular application video gaming, as additionally shown inFIG. 2 . Specifically, thefurniture piece 100 may comprise a gaming chair which may include one or more ofspeakers 102,control panel 106, input/output jack 108 and/or a power source (not shown). - In a preferred embodiment, the
pillow 10 is removably connected to thefurniture piece 100. As best shown inFIGS. 3-6 , the pillow includes anattachment component 16 for fixing thepillow 10 with respect to afurniture piece 100. In this embodiment, theattachment component 16 comprises a pair ofengageable straps 18, where onestrap 18 of the pair are connected to each end of thepillow 10. In practice, thepillow 10 may be set on the back of a chair and then the straps 60 may be used to engage thepillow 10 to a seatback, for instance. Alternative embodiments of theattachment component 16 may include hook and loop fasteners, buckles, ties or other similar attachment mechanisms. In another embodiment, thepillow 10 may be permanently secured tofurniture piece 100 or may be integrally formed into the foam and cover of thefurniture piece 100. - In a preferred embodiment, the
pillow 10 includes aconnector cord 24 that preferably extends from thevibrator 20 within thepillow 10 to a desired external distance from thepillow 10 for connecting thevibrator 20 to an entertainment medium. In one embodiment, theconnector cord 24 connects to thefurniture piece 100 through thecontrol panel 106 and thefurniture piece 100 is connected to the entertainment medium (not shown), so as to be responsive to a signal produced from the entertainment medium. Although shown as hard-wire connected by aconnector cord 24, it will be appreciated that any means of transferring the signal to thefurniture piece 100 and/or the entertainment medium may be realized including, for example, a wireless transmission. - In an embodiment of this invention, the
pillow 10 may include a control panel 26 for adjusting the output of thevibrator 20.
