I'm having great difficulty mentally putting all my pieces on that and actually riding.
It's a five-year old article, so I assume these haven't taken over the cycling world yet.
Edit: Oh, man, go find the R*dd*t thread on this thing. Some of the comments are hilarious:
"How many batteries does it take and how noisy are the vibrations?"

it's clearly a spin-off from aerospace research back in the 1948. i.e. the Convair XF-92

It might be a kind of a "corrective" device for riders who tend to place themselves off-center on the saddle; don't want to risk back injury due to bad ergonomics! Ask your Sports Doctor to write a Prescription for it!
