You could probably enhance it for 2 way communication if you had something that could sense anal sphincter pressure. Then you could encode your opponent’s move via contractions, and then have it transmit the best move to you. You would basically have a chess computer that you communicated with entirely through your butt. This would work, even if you played in a Faraday cage since the communication and computation is all internal.

I was going to comment that this is only 1 way, whereas the sockfish project was 2 way, if I remember correctly. This would only work if the accomplice has a visual of the game. Your solution would probably work, I guess. I sadly don't know anything about measuring sphincter pressure. You could also have a pressure sensor in a shoe or something that interfaces with the buttplug via bluetooth, or even a small wire. Though, I could imagine competition security looking at feet but drawing the line before checking butts. So, the chances of getting caught could be higher with my approach.

Ok, so, sort of NSFW links ahead, but there's actually an open source project that does this. The Nogasm is a pleasure denial project that uses pelvic floor contraction frequency, as sensed by pressure output in an air filled cavity, to prolong play. https://github.com/nogasm/nogasm https://github.com/nogasm/nogasm There's even a upscale ESP32 based version of it called the Edge-O-Matic, complete with its own Flappy Bird implementation. https://maustec.io/pages/edge-o-matic https://maustec.io/pages/edge-o-matic Output from either of these devices could be used for that, though discerning between voluntary versus involuntary muscle contraction would be challenging.

  Seems like it would be pretty easy. Send a "dot" for three contractions each one second apart. Send a "dash" for three contractions each three seconds apart. It would be pretty slow, but it doesn't need to be fast.

    It can't be too slow, if it takes too long to input moves, you can't input in realtime, or you have to slow down your play and that can look suspicious.

If the player was male, could the prostate gland be leveraged somehow? Personally, I think it'd be easier to make one's prostate twitch or "pulse" than to consciously control the pressure of their anal sphincter in a high-stress situation.
