Tug n’Talk (by Harry, 2007)

The device consists of a belt-buckle form factor with an attached pair of chains. One chain connects to the user’s shirt and one dangles below the device. Tugs on the bottom chain are transmitted to a paired belt and represented as tugs on the chain connected to the shirt itself. Each belt also has a button on it to interrupt a tug in process.
