YES ! At Long Last, We Can Stop People Talking Too Much.

Post #1 ManOfWicklowTextileA lie has speed, but truth has endurance.

Japanese scientists have created a new device designed to silence annoying people who talk too loudly and too often in public places.
I'm sure most of us have been at a coffee shop, bookstore or restaurant when someone with very little social awareness walks in and starts talking very loudly about all kinds of personal rubbish.
Well now a new gadget from scientists in Japan called the SpeechJammer could shut them up for good. The device works on the premise that it's impossible for anyone to continue speaking when their own voice is played back to them right away.
Of course this does mean we'd have to hear their stupid words twice, but if it means they're a bit embarrassed and quiet straight after, then we're not complaining.
The SpeechJammer consists of a microphone attached to a speaker, which records people's voices. The sounds are then transferred to a speaker, which replays everything about 0.2 seconds later right back at them.
According to The Telegraph, the microphone and speaker are very sensitive to the direction noises are coming from, so can direct audio at people "like a gun". Lovely.
Of course the device was designed to facilitate discussion in meetings and teach people more about turn taking as well, but we like the fact it'll stop shouty, obnoxious people from telling strangers in the room far too much about their health problems and sex lives.

Even better would be a unit that feeds the delayed impulses directly into the brain of the person rather than forcing bystanders to hear the idiot's babbling twice. Hmmm... telepathic feedback... gotta work on that concept.It would be nice to use on a couple of members here, but of course, that would not be possible due to the lack of receptive brain cells.
