Sound Activated Fall off Lingerie new patent: Patent granted for a bra that falls off when you clap your hands. Inventor Michael Mansour Ahmadshahi Ph.D., Esq. has just been granted a US patent for his ‘Signal-activated lingerie’ which incorporates a remotely activated (un)fastener “causing the lingerie to fall off from the wearer’s body” when it receives the appropriate signal. The patent document explains :
Sound Activated Fall off Lingerie new patent –
“Lingerie, such as bras which are worn by females, have a fastening mechanism, such as a hook-type fastener, which is difficult to open, especially for the male counterpart. A bra according to the present invention could be made using a signal-activated fastener such that the female’s boyfriend or husband could clap his hand and the bra would automatically open.”
As described, the invention may also incorporate voice-recognition technology so that only a previously-authorized operator’s voice will activate it.
Notes:
For those wondering whether the technology could/should also apply to male undergarments – the patent document doesn’t specifically mention them. But it does note that the invention can also be configured to remotely operate belts and trousers.
According to the invention’s website, it’s soon to be launched as a product.
“We are a high-end lingerie company offering specially-designed one-piece lingerie. This lingerie DO NOT use bio-metrics.
We do, however, have a patented technology which uses bio-metric signals to unfasten the lingerie remotely. We hope to bring it to you soon! “
The 2009 Ig Nobel Health Prize was awarded to Elena N. Bodnar, Raphael C. Lee, and Sandra Marijan of Chicago, Illinois, USA, for inventing a brassiere that, in an emergency, can be quickly converted into a pair of protective face masks, one for the brassiere wearer and one to be given to some needy bystander. See U.S. patent 7255627 for a “Garment Device Convertible to One or More Facemasks.”
