AirPod Sleeping Pod – Transforming
Travel and Napping Industry
“
There is so much potential, ...
I am just waiting for it to be
”
a billion dollar industry.
Charlie Shrem
AirPod Sleeping Pod (hereinafter referred to as AirPod) is a private “capsule style” unit designed
to be installed in public spaces such are: airports, hotels, railway & bus stations, shopping cen-
ters and offices. It is an ideal solution for people who are seeking an area to relax, sleep, work,
or have fun in privacy, while still in a public place.
AirPod is full of cutting-edge technologies that enable users to undertake tasks in total priva
-
cy and comfort while still remaining in the heart of a public or commercial space. AirPod will
encompass features to enhance the user experience such as Wi-Fi, touch screen monitor, air
condition, sound reduction technology, privacy blinds in smart glass, mood lighting and anti-
-stress program.
With AirPod sleek, ergonomic design,...
“
Airports are the perfect
place for AirPods, hence
”
the name “AirPod”.
Passengers around the world can spend several hours waiting for their flight in airport terminals.
Most of them are subjected to delays, extended transfers, or long check-in times and are forced
to spend their time in a busy, bustling terminal with little, to no privacy.
AirPod offers users a convenient and affordable way to maximize and enjoy their time spent in
these airport terminals (and eventually other locations such as transit hubs, shopping areas, and
offices).
Present alternatives are simple. For private space, there is uncomfortable terminal chairs or paying
for a Lounge area. For sleeping, there is booking a nearby hotel. The AirPod team took the time
to analyze current “privacy pods” offered in some airports, but the results were not impressive.
Current privacy pods are deficient in many ways and are only aimed at those looking to sleep, not
work. They are small, dark, and are oft...
Meet the Founders
The idea of AirPod was conceptualized about two years ago in a conversation between the two
founders Grega Mrgole and Mihael Meolic, while traveling to a meeting. Co-founder Mihael was
recounting his nerve wrecking stories while being stuck at the airport, waiting for a connecting
flight. Mihael has been fortunate enough to travel to numerous cities around the globe, and has
constantly experienced firsthand the rough experiences of global air travel.

After a long and constructive conversation, the team at AirPod came to the conclusion that the
needs of transit passengers in airports are not being treated properly. The only way to fix this
problem was to develop a pod, which would provide an extra-sensory experience and sound
sleep for the user, but still at an affordable price.
The AirPod team decided to develop a completely new concept that will change the way the
world sees transit private space for good. The AirPod team took the time to...
“
For me, becoming the best you can
be in something that you love, like
rowing, is incredibly challenging,
and what you learn about yourself,
the sense of satisfaction as you
get older and move on, you'll never
”
forget that. It's huge.

“
Opportunities don't happen.
”
