I’m the designer and creator of Somnus-Neu – I can say without a hint of a doubt the concept was not “plucked” from Cipher or anywhere else. For 15 years I designed large scale video,lighting and staging and lived in hotel rooms – so the concept was born out of an already existing knowledge of how to bring together various technologies and implement them in such a way that there is a harmonious union, that’s one part of the concept, the second part is recognizing a gaping hole in the “guest-experience” within the hospitality sector, this too was based on first hand knowledge, and the third part – looking at the logical progression of convergent technology and design.

I’m sorry that you find the idea un-original or imitated, which for the latter I can say 100% it isn’t and for the former, well that’s in the eye of the beholder. Apparently in yours it is, but this is not something I can or need to change.

I would suggest never staying in a hotel where Somnus-Neu is the bed, nor ever considering buying one for your house – that way you’ll be sure to remain as pure and original as you like.

Just because somebody thought of it in a movie does not lessen the value of improvements in our real life experiences.

This bed is cool. I want one in my home.
