Like seat and shoulder belt systems that allow some
freedom of
movement as long as it is below a certain speed.
e.g. bra shoulder straps and back bands that allow just the
right
amount of bounce but automatically become tight if things
get
out of hand. So to speak.
Automotive systems vary
including electrically tightening or
even
explosive gas systems. Some sensors tighten the belts
before a
crash or even when accelerating as when engaging in evasive
maneuvers.
Bra manufacturers would have several options, of course.

This is quite almost remarkable. [+] |

As per the above 'just the right amount of bounce',
adjustable, of course.
I often see women around here on horseback and although
thrilling in some cases to watch I cringe to think of the
damage being done to beauty. |
|
| |
The system could be active as well - adding bounce under certain circumstances. |
|
| |
Yeah, using those systems that track where your eyeballs are aimed. When an audience is detected bounce could be initiated. |

The damage is therefore self-inflicted, and they are entirely
undeserving of sympathy or concern. Anyway, they're clearly
insane, so why bother ? |

Erm, are we not overlooking the merits of the custard-filled bra? |
|
| |
You might have to develop a different sort of training bra. Something to measure the forces and provide a preview of fit and feel for the customer. |
|
| |
And a shaker chair or phone booth to administer know force shocks to ensemble. |
|
| |
I have some really nice Shaker chairs at home, but I'm not sure how they'd help with this idea |
|
| |
So when you buy one now at the best shops, they should test for natural frequency. Spec out optimum damping %, cup size, and spring rate. |
|
| |
Be sure to reach at least critical stability in any actively-managed system prototypes. The last thing you want is to induce too much excitation. |
|

It should be possible to limit/increase elasticity of
one strap and use that strap for both shoulders but I
think you would want control of the space between
the breasts as well for maximum comfort. I think
you'll need two governing units one between the
breasts (or controlling a VERY low friction
drawstring to the front) and the other in the middle
of the back. They don't need to be particularly
large. They just need to reel in or play out string.
Natural bounce can be relied on to give slack for
the reeling in part. |

I think I can design a prototype for $100,000 |
|
| |
How much of that budget is for preliminary field experiments? |
|
| |
I would start with water balloons. Sorry to disappoint. |

Difficult to match the same dynamic of being under the skin...and presumably very difficult to stick balloons onto a flat board. |
|
| |
In case of imminent crash, would the bra attempt to move the breasts around to the back to avoid collision with the steering wheel or dashboard? I would think some modicum of safety such as this should be standard equipment. Of course, the breasts would have to undergo a bit of pre-stretch training prior to this safety feature being deployed... |
|
| |
I foresee a cottage industry springing forth! Instuctors! Manipulation Assistants! The first graduating class, proudly walking up to the podium to get their diplomas, breasts fashionably draped over their shoulders!! |
|
| |
Oh, and (+)(+). Dang, I got so caught up in the moment I nearly forgot those little babies. |
|
| |
(Grogster) I think you did get caught up in the moment and
strayed from the basic idea which is for an everyday
wearable bra that allows comfort but restricts excessive,
damaging, and uncomfortable movement.
I' m sure some testing will need to be done and your input
could be useful. Watch for job openings. |

Missed it by THAAAAAT much... |
|

Input from the ladies most welcome. |
|

//Input from the ladies most welcome |
|

Most unlikely...this thing is more of a male item of interest. You have to admire the irony of those who don't have them, are the most interested in them. |
|
| |
//Input from the ladies most welcome.// |
|
| |
Careful, [cudgel]. You don't want to go patronising
the ladies - you know what they're like. |
|
| |
[MB] //know what they're like// Like, they're dangerous and
don't come with instructions? |
|
| |
Well you know, being born a female, we have the same
breasts as males at a young age. Then something happens
that we don't really understand (they start growing) and we
don't really get instructions on boobs except for Mom saying
"don't let the boys touch them"....it's scary you know. (or
just so you know!) |
|
| |
//"don't let the boys touch them". |
|
| |
Now you tell me..tch...how about other girls? |
|
| |
[not_mrm] // //"don't let the boys touch them".// Now you tell me..tch...how about other girls?// - What do you mean? "Don't let the boys touch other girls" or "Don't let other girls touch them"? |
