It’s been referred to as the “holy grail” of teledildonics, and in my hubris, I want to have a go at detecting male ejaculation. Why ejaculation? Well, this is specifically for uses where someone is playing with a male masturbator toy and they climax. Wouldn’t it be great if they got some kind of feedback… Continue reading Approaches for detecting cum

So, I have gesture detection working relatively well, the next hurdle is speed of the gesture. It sounds like a relatively simple problem to solve, but it’s deceptively complex, especially since we’re dealing with a series of data points. In the video above, I am using a simple moving average on stream 3 of the… Continue reading Insertable Speed Detection the Easy Way

I am pleased to report that the stream of data I have been collecting off the insertable device can be used to detect different user gestures. Gestures you ask? Well, I want to be able to tell what the user is doing with the device (e.g. blowjob, licking, hand job and penetrative buttsex). Not sure… Continue reading Insertable gesture detection using DTW

So, here we are, the moment you have all been waiting for: behold a working prototype of an insertable toy. After building up the layered conductive and non-conductive silicone per my insertable design, the next challenge was getting a negative mold of a penis. My penis to be precise, because I wanted the first prototype… Continue reading Insertable toy prototype

The insertable toy was the first one I thought of over a year ago. The original design involved wires and conductive paint to somehow create capacitive touch surfaces. I knew that wouldn’t work, not least because the exposed wires were not going to be a smart idea in the butt. With the discovery of the conductive… Continue reading Insertable Design

After designing the mold, it took a while for me to plan how I was going to actually use it to make my first prototype. Without further ado, this is the resulting  working model for the masturbator. Your peen goes in the scary looking cavity. The only failure of the prototype was the silicone is… Continue reading Masturbator first prototype

So, my experiments in capacitive sensing have all been in aid of creating a device that can be used for interactive sex games. This post focuses on the design of a masturbator device. In order to make a silicone device, I need a “negative” mold to pour the silicone into. I started with a model… Continue reading Designing the mold for a sensing Masturbator

I’ll start with the result for those who don’t have time to read. With 10mm of non-conductive silicone insulating the carbon-fibre conductive silicone, we still get a pretty good change in capacitance which can be detected. This is great news! The 10mm of non conductive silicone can act as a physical barrier whilst the conductive… Continue reading Capacitance Sensing with Conductive Silicone

So, as part of my little teledildonics project, I think it would be useful to have capacitive sensors to determine what you’re doing with the toy. Capacitive sensing in silicone is tricky. Silicone is a great insulator so you need to add something conductive. You don’t want anything hard in the silicone which will make… Continue reading Carbon Fibre Silicone

Like all real life stories, this one starts in the middle. I have been interested in the field of teledildonics for well over a decade now. For the uninitiated, this is the technology used for sex at a distance, or even potentially entirely artificial sex with your computer. My interest developed in a round-about way.… Continue reading Teledildonics
