Abstract

Provided herein is a string shooting device, and more particularly, a string shooting device that is wearable and operable by hand gestures or body movement. Embodiments include a wearable device for propelling a string including: a string shooting device; a band configured to attach to a body part of a user; and a holder, where the holder is secured by the band to the user; where, in response to the body part of the user being in a first position, the string shooting device is not actuated, and where in response to the body part of the user being in a second position, the string shooting device is actuated. The shooting is accomplished by means of a pair of flywheels, at least one of which is motor-driven. By reversing the direction of rotation, a large portion of the string can be retracted into an internal cavity.
