    This special bra sticker can detect forcible touch in real-timepic.twitter.com/HgkVZ8B7vn

    Bra sticker
    'Intrepid' is a project by MIT that uses an electronic sticker that can detect forcible grabbing and alert a set network of friends and family. It can be used to help assault victims in real-time.

        Why do we need this? How sad is society that women need protection like this! Have some respect ☹

        This makes me so sad. Nobody should need a bloody sticker to feel safe.

        Put the money spent into developing this, into teaching people not to assault others!

        What a ridiculous #invention! So someone grabs you and you say "oh excuse me let me just find my phone in my bag first to not allow consent

        In actual assault, you'd have to dig in purse to find phone to report AFTER the fact. This reports DURING if you don't respond to phone.

        Oh good. Heat of the moment, my bra sets my phone off, kills the mood and sends my parents the recording of me at it!!! Terrible idea.

        Shouldn't really need a device like this, educate men to realise grabbing someone is not acceptable as just ' banter'.

        So how much are they planning to market this to women at? Teaching people not to be entitled scumbags is free.
