This is exceptionally clever. It vibrates.
30 seconds on, 30 seconds off, vibrating as it works its way through your digestive tract. The vibrations help to stimulate the peristaltic response, and then the pill is 'ejected' in the morning. Some testers said they could sense the vibrations, but that it wasn't unpleasant or kept them awake.
It will be interesting to see how much this is when it hits the market. My dad had this problem for most of his life, I wish they'd come out with this a couple of years ago.

Date: 2023-03-02 09:22 pm (UTC)A friend of mine - professional, life-long IT guy - had an Amazon or Google 'assistant' device. One night his wife woke him up saying that someone had broken into their house and she could hear voices on the ground level. My friend grabbed a baseball bat kept in the room and crept down. It was the device, saying 'no internet connection available'. There had been a power failure and the thing couldn't reconnect on its own.
