A Portable Video Player Belt Buckle

Society is completely immersed with media. Everywhere you turn there’s a billboard, or a bus with an advertisement on it. But what if the next time you were at a club you saw commercials on everyone’s belt buckles?

Well it just might be possible with Egocast's creation of the Egocast One. The Egocast One is a media player that can be attached to your belt and play either your own content or a number of looping videos that come with the player. Egocast even offers a subscription service in which you are sent new looping videos on a regular basis.


But what do you do with a belt buckle video player when you aren't walking around in public? Well the Egocast One is also a standalone player that you can view your favorite TV shows or home videos on. The player also comes with video output so you can play the video on your TV.

If you do decide to buy this product be careful. The manufacturer does warn consumers about it's affects. They say that the product "Is not for wallflowers. Some people might be a little uncomfortable with everyone looking at their belt; it's sort of an unusual place for people to be staring at."
