Sole-Sageel Automatically Lowers Your Beer Mug So You Can Toast More Humbly
Sole-Sageel automates the gesture of lowering your beer mug below the other person's during a toast. Two long-stroke solenoids physically raise and lower the mug.
The device was created by Pokosute for Takaha Kiko's 13th Solenoid Contest, where it won an award for especially absurd and useless creations. On the linked page, see the section titled 自動忖度マシーン「ソレサゲール」.
A tiny gesture that normally takes one hand now gets two long-stroke solenoids. Automating humility somehow makes the whole ritual much more elaborate.
