It was only a matter of time before someone harnessed the power of immersive virtual reality and focussed it into getting our rocks off: sex toy company Tenga looks to have created the first sex simulator using the Oculus Rift and a series of questionable aids.
Editor’s note: Before you all complain in the comments, these videos are Not Safe For Work. That probably goes for the links too. You were warned.
As creepy as this first video looks, it’s actually a fairly genius contraption. It’s essentially a futuristic male sex toy in three parts.
First, there’s the Oculus Rift. That goes over the eyes of the wearer and provides visual stimulation in the form of a manga character performing virtual sex acts on your avatar. To create an immersive sexual experience, however, you need more than just visual stimuli.
That’s where Tenga’s masturbation sleeve comes in. It provides feedback to your gentleman vegetables, but it doesn’t respond to the output coming from the actual sex simulator.
To add immersion, the devs hooked the Tenga sleeve up to a Novint Falcon 3D feedback peripheral, which takes the actions of the character and reflects them on the sleeve.

The Novint Falcon is intended to be hooked up to something like a pistol peripheral and used in action and first-person shooter titles to give gamers the real feeling of shooting a gun or being shot themselves. The theory is the same here, but the application is radically different.
In the second video, the optional hand allows for a more “realistic” hand
The Oculus Rift with optional Hand feature…
Technology is making it easier for us to never have social lives again, lol. Thoughts?
