News that law enforcement is expanding their use of electric gloves to pacify people when arresting them led FNN to do some digging and discover that it's not just gloves that will be providing an electrifying experience.

It's also diapers!

A spokesperson explained:

Apart from the pong, how can you tell a diaper has been spoiled or filled?

You can't and that's where electric diapers come in.

We are developing a new diaper that delivers a small electric shock to the wearer that triggers either number 1 or number 2.

The diaper beeps when the shock has been delivered so that a parent can tell that the diaper needs to be changed.

Genius!

The new range of electric diapers will be called 'Shockers'.

Interesting?
