Good Vibrations

Here are just a few of the possible scenarios:

It's been a long, hard day at work. Your quick lunch was over hours ago and there's still hours to go before quitting time. You're starting to drag at your desk, and the 3:00 candy bar is just not going to cut it. Suddenly you feel a warm tingling between your legs. Your eyes open wide, then slowly close half way and you are no longer in your office cubicle, but on a white sand beach, the cool ocean breeze caressing your naked body, while a swirl of lapping water gently tickles your toes. Your boyfriend sends you an email that simply says, "Thinking of you," followed by a smiley face.

You're stuck in the middle of a two hour mid-morning meeting, and you're bored out of your mind as the boss drones on and on about nothing. You surreptitiously glance down at your smartphone, key in a few commands, and are rewarded with waves of pleasure that emanate out from the center of your body. The corners of your mouth turn upward. You are no longer bored.

You're driving home from work, and traffic is a mess. You call your husband to tell him you'll be late. A gentle vibration stirs you and slowly builds in intensity as your husband waves his phone around as if he were conducting a symphony.

These are some of the features offered by the "blueMotion" wearable massager from sex-tech company OhMiBod, headquartered in North Hampton, New Hampshire. The smart-sex gadget that utilizes Bluetooth technology was unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show, currently taking place in Las Vegas.

blueMotion is a soft, rubber vibrator controlled via Bluetooth over the OhMiBod smartphone app. blueMotion represents the latest in teledildonics hardware, if you'll pardon the pun, and appeals to couples in long distance relationships. Not only does the device provide for hands free functionality, but makes use of your smartphone's built-in accelerometer.

A company spokesman explains that, “Using the phone's accelerometer, simply wave the phone from side to side or use it as a "gas" pedal to drive stronger and steadier vibrations."

The discreet design also makes it possible for the adventurous males in a relationship to get in on the fun, and put themselves in their wive's or girlfriend's hands, so to speak.

The product will be available to consumers in March, missing the marketing value of a Valentine's Day launch.

However, as London based writer Victoria Turk points out, "I can’t help but think of what happens when someone hacks your smartphone."

Along with the integrated technology of the virtual reality headsets and state of the art gaming consoles and software, also unveiled at CES, the opportunities for the blueMotion end-user are nothing short of orgasmic.
