Not content with cruder simulations of physical affection like the love pillow or mousepads with soft, wrist-comforting cleavage, researchers at Tokyo's Kajimoto Laboratory at the University of Electro-Communications have developed a kissing transmitter that aims to deliver the sensation of making out with someone over the internet.

Or, at least, making out with the business end of a hamster water bottle. Close enough!

Kajimoto Laboratory researcher Nobuhiro Takahashi demonstrates the device for DigInfo News, explaining that the PC controller currently works with a single computer but could effectively be networked to allow for online tonsil-hockey. The lab specializes in researching tactile feedback technology, including a vest that simulates the feeling of hugging oneself.

"The elements of a kiss include the sense of taste, the manner of breathing, and the moistness of the tongue," Takahashi explains. "If we can recreate all of those I think it will be a really powerful device." And how. Attach this to a PC release of Konami's Love Plus dating sim and they'd fly off the shelves.

Of course, we've already seen kissing control innovation in video games, but an online ready controller that services the lonelier gamer in their times of frenching need seems like an exciting step forward for science.

would any of you use it?
 
DS youre in luck! you might actually get your first "French kiss" with this thing! lmao nah, even this thing wouldn't want to kiss you I bet :P
 
I sometimes sit on my Wii controller accidentally. Sometimes, I find it lying on the floor or under my couch (years have past since I last cleaned IT :evil lol:).

Besides, "It's not the weapon that you should fear but the person who wields it"

So better kiss yourself instead! :thumbsup:
 
I don't think guys will use this on their lips. :) This is lame. Very lame. No wonder the Japanese population is decreasing. Electronics can't reproduce, people.
 
Pretty "cool" for long distance relationships but if you have to rely on it, umm... i have no idea! Seriously.

Not needing such a device myself..
 
Wow I feel it is kind of disgusting to kiss a controller. But if the character in the game is really pretty...... HEHEHE
 
This is quite odd. I sit watching the video wondering how that could feel real? Sure it's not the full thing, but it looks like hes just playing with a straw. I don't think I will be needing this. I can see it as an insult down the road: Get A Real Friend, Nerd Controller Kisser
