All too many expensive items crunch underfoot. Fitting them with low voltage proximity sensors will avoid that. They will, of course, need resets, so your spectacles, for example, don't constantly emitted a high-pitched whine while you are wearing them. Perhaps we will have the noise cut off on actual
contact.
[And perhaps we'll put the factory in New Hampshire.]

Strain gages are relatively cheap and could alert you as you are doing some squeezing. Harder to predict the act, but easier to scream during it! |

Could this also work for my cats tail rather then my legs being shredded after the event? (+) |

I like this idea. There could be a problem with making it small and cheap enough so that the prevented damage makes it worth the effort, though. |
