Silent Alarm Clock
Hate that nagging beeping sound that screams out from your alarm clock, especially on Monday morning? So did designer Johan Brengesjo. He decided to develop an alarm clock that wakes you up without sound. Instead, you wear a wireless rubber ring with an integrated vibration device that generates a tactile alarm. To snooze, simply shake your hand. However, there’s a catch — each time you shake your hand to snooze, more movement is required to stop the vibration, so eventually you are awake enough to get up.

great idea! & awesome present for my hubby!
I have narcoplepsy and apnea so waking up if a major problem for me; it’s very hard. I use several alarm clocks and need a person to call me every morning. This might be just what I need…I’d love to test it out
I love this idea, but maybe would be bothered by the sweaty wrist.
interesting…
wondering if that rubber would irritate my sensitive skin, and wondering if the progressively enduring vibrations wouldn’t make me more frustrated than the reliable, but incredibly annoying BEEEP BEEEP BEEEP of the alarm i have now
regardless, the clock looks cool! i want it :]
Add sleep cycle detection and an iPhone, and you get this:

silent alarm clock, where is the fun in that. Seriously would be good for all of us early starters so we don’t wake our loved ones with our early hours alarms.
I like this idea about vibrating alarm clock. But some people doesn’t like to sleep with a rubber ring.
If you need an alarm to wake you up at a certain time you’re doing it wrong.
Doing it wrong…or life is more exciting/meaningful nowadays.
Amazing! when will this be available to order and how much is it going to cost?
