1. A communications system comprising:
- a first bracelet for a user to wear that can sense a contraction when squeezed around the user, and including a transmitter for wirelessly transmitting a signal indicating that the bracelet has been squeezed;
the first bracelet further including a receiver for receiving a signal and for contracting around the user in response to the received signal.

Abstract
A communications system has first and second units whereby, when a user changes the physical state of the first unit, a message is sent to the second unit to cause the second unit to change to the same state. This change in state can be, for example, a physical squeezing movement or a change in color.

18. A communications system comprising:
-
a first device including; a sensor for sensing a change in a physical state, and a transmitter for transmitting a signal indicative of the change in state; and a second device including; a receiver, responsive to receiving a signal indicative of a change in physical state of the first device, and causing a change in the state of the second device in a manner that is substantially similar to the change in the state of the first device; wherein the change in a physical state includes a change in the outward appearance of at least a part of the first device or a movement that causes a change in the position of one part of the first device relative to other parts of the first device. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A method comprising:
- a first device sensing a change in a physical state of the first device, the first device wirelessly transmitting a signal indicative of the change in the physical state of the first device;
a second device receiving the signal indicative of the change in physical state of the first device; and
the second device changing its state in a manner substantially similar to the change in first device;
wherein the change in a physical state includes a movement by one part of the device with an angular motion relative to another part.
- a first device sensing a change in a physical state of the first device, the first device wirelessly transmitting a signal indicative of the change in the physical state of the first device;
