Now, tail for humans that wags when you're happy

A wacky Japanese inventor has created a fluffy tail for humans that wags when one is happy.

The "Tailly" gadget is hooked up to a heart rate monitor - and is programmed to wag faster the more excited a person gets.

Shota Ishiwatari, the brains behind the accessory, is planning to launch the gadget in the UK this year, 'The Sun' reported.

Ishiwatari hopes the gadget - which is available in four colours - will put a smile on people's faces. The gadget can even help couples communicate better, the inventor hopes, the report said.

"Tailly is fun to wear to parties, while out with friends or playing with kids. You could even wear Tailly on a date and express your true feelings through the wagging tail," Ishiwatari said.

"Even better, your partner could also wear one for the both of you to add a level of subconscious communication," he added.
