SmartBooks

A device that fits underneath a book and makes reading impossible. When someone is detected near the book, the device closes the book. The book will continue closing at random time intervals, losing the reader’s place each time.

A future iteration would conceal the mechanics within the book, making it appear as though book itself refuses to be read.
