Proximity Alert!

Link to videoAmerican home security company SimpliSafe has unveiled a holiday sweater prototype that promotes social distancing by using alarms and flashing lights.
As the holiday season approaches and coronavirus cases continue to spike across the United States and other countries, more people have started considering whether it is safe or not to meet up with loved ones.
To tackle this problem, SimpliSafe designed the Social Distancing Sweater, which is rigged with motion sensors that set off the knitwear’s siren and flashing LED lights when someone steps within 6 feet (1.8 metres) of the sweater-wearer.
“As the experts on protection, albeit home protection, we wanted to give people a playful way to protect themselves during this year’s holiday celebrations,” SimpliSafe creative director Wade Devers said. “It’s really meant to bring some lightheartedness to a time that’s otherwise proven very stressful.” -
Thats funny!
(I assume it is a joke, but somebody will probably make one after seeing this)
