They should use a Faraday cage. It doubles as a WWE steel cage if one is caught cheating.
Joking aside, chess engines can run on very little hardware. It's not out of the question that something like this might be entirely embedded soon enough.
The hardest part might be interpreting the board state.
The hard part might be communication. It’s easy to consider a device that can play chess as getting smaller and easier to hide, even a camera getting too small to notice.
But how does the device tell you what to do. The heads-up display is obvious but you can probably take action against that. Or maybe a voice but EarPods are noticeable if you’re looking for them, and maybe hearing aids not allowed. But what’s even less conspicuous? This thread has people joking about vibrating anal plugs but you can imagine lots of possibilities for extremely discrete devices if you can figure out a way to communicate sufficiently. My example was going to be a ring
You could offload that to a phone, though.
AFAIK you are not allowed any kind of mobile devices during chess games.
Bluetooth has a pretty good range and low power consumption.
Ok but we were talking about a faraday cage scensrio.
A phone up you ass, then you're good to go regardless of any cage.
I've been seeing this suggestion in various replies and it's got me thinking people are just seeking an excuse at this point. 😂
Is WWE not wrestling? Not sure how barely-disguised gay porn is going to solve this
You're writing this as if it were a bad thing.
Considerable application of the choking aspect
It's soap operas for men.
It's pretty obvious isn't it? 😁
