A couple of years ago, I wrote an article on virtual reality porn. I touched on the somewhat sci-fi topic of teledildonics. At the time teledildonics was mostly a concept. Not anymore.
Teledildonics? WTF?

Teledildonics involves a mechanical gratification device that is hooked up to software. The software commands the device to perform physical masturbatory functions. For the purposes of this article, I will forgo discussion of female pleasure devices because, let's face it, the ladies already have seriously great sex toys.
What we're talking about here goes beyond the FleshLight or some intelligent Desktop Stripper program. We're talking a sleeve that fits over the penis with the ability to tug, stroke and warm a man's pole, in sync with a model's sex-act performance, playing on a monitor. A portable pussy, mouth or ass that's lined with soft ridges that roll up and down and even warms the cock. This device is called REAL TOUCH.
When you visit the Real Touch website, you'll get to watch highly-detailed videos about the product. I advise you to visit the site as it's imperative to see video of the Real Touch in action. When you do, you choose between a Straight or Gay environment. Additionally, if you've already purchased a Real Touch, you can activate it from the front page.
What is a Real Touch, really?
The device is a rounded-tube cylinder with a slight hourglass profile. Outside, it's covered in gray plastic and on one end is a silicone orifice. It connects via USB port and AC. The orifice entry and inner lining appear to be some sort of high-grade, highly-pliable silicone but the company calls the material VERSAFLEX. The mechanics are made up of two, servo-motorized VERSAFLEX belts and the user slides his member, through the entry orifice, in between the layers of soft material. When hooked up to the computer (and viewing one of the Real Touch VOD movies) the device mimics the actions of the model on screen. Real Touch calls the combination of hardware and software HAPTIC TECHNOLOGY. Haptic is a college word meaning "touch".
The Real Touch is both warm and wet. The unit has a lube reservoir as well as tiny thermal elements that heat gently and gradually. The Real Touch has an outer shell that removes easily, allowing for cleaning, maintenance and refilling lube. According to the company, the Real Touch is self-balancing but in the demonstration video, the user was seated with his legs crossed high, appearing to balance the unit on his upper calf as well as his lap. Logic dictates that as long as you have a comfy chair, where you can lean back a little with your legs crossed, you should have no problems letting the Real Touch do all the work.

When I discussed the subject of male-oriented teledildonics two years ago, a sleeve-type product was already on the market. That model is called the VIRTUAL SEX MACHINE and is a tube-shaped device with a soft, hollow coil that thrusts up and down a man's shaft, in sync with a sex-act video. It can also mimic sucking and blowing as well as gentle squeezing and speed changes. The VSM comes with lube to enhance the pleasure plus five interactive videos. The device is controlled through an external digital interface that hooks up via the PC printer port. It costs much more that the Real Touch but since both gadgets won't work without an interactive video, the Virtual Sex Machine might be the more complete package, so to speak.
Real Touch promises a webmaster affiliate program while the Virtual Sex Machine's program is dependent upon approval and chosen webmasters won't know how much commission they make until they sign up and are accepted.
Being a female Mowse, it would be impossible for me to have more than an observational opinion on whether or not guys will buy a teledildonic gadget. Knowing men the way I do, they'll pretty much stick their cocks anywhere and if these products operate safely and as advertised, then who am I to question? Women have been putting mechanical gizmos up their twats for well over thirty years and before that, outside their twats for more than a hundred.
As far as webmaster money-making is concerned, both the Real Touch and the Virtual Sex Machine are high-ticket items that ought to garner decent commissions. The Real Touch, because of its online VOD service and the Virtual Sex Machine because of its over $400.00 sticker price.
