Even then, that situation might be assuming too much if the current advancements in sex toy tech keep moving forward at a breakneck pace: perhaps we\u2019ll be saying it to our grand-bots instead!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter what you desire, you\u2019re only ever a few clicks away from fulfilling them, be it with a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sex toy, pleasure product<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/5-best-hook-apps\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">even a hookup app<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. And what with recent advances in virtual reality applications for sex and pleasure, we are soon headed towards a future where real sex in the physical space between two adults will be a nostalgic experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However it might surprise you to know that \u2018Virtual Reality Sex Toys\u2019 isn\u2019t just a sex toy connected to a VR headset. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Technologically advanced sex toys<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that provide a \u2018virtually real\u2019 experience are ones that do things that traditional sex toys, and the traditional ideas &amp; functions of sex, cannot deliver.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what are the current items on the sex toy landscape that count as virtual reality sex toys? Well if you\u2019ve got the cash to burn you can try out the very latest in real sex doll technology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gone are the days when a sex doll was something that you\u2019d inflate first before avoiding its lifeless gaze \u2013 most likely you\u2019d have bought it as a joke, but for many, owning <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/sex-dolls\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a blow-up doll<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was no laughing matter. One could actually consider the traditional blow-up sex doll as a fore runner to the virtual reality sex toys and the hyper-realistic sex dolls of today, as they attempted to present male users with their best approximation of a female partner. As laughable as that may sound today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve got an extra 5 thousand bucks lying around, you can be among the elite crowd of people who own the latest crop of RealDoll lifelike sex dolls. They\u2019re so advanced, and thus expensive, with their engineered pose-able joints and lifelike looks based on Hollywood special effects technology that ownership is only in the tens of thousands so far.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The RealDolls promise a virtual sex experience based on providing a lifelike \u2018partner\u2019 here in the physical world that you can pose and position as you see fit. However on the complete other end of this pendulum swing of innovation is something called the Launchpad, which is simply described as an iPad case with an attached masturbation sleeve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a masturbation sleeve attached to the underside of your iPad, you\u2019re essentially\u2026 having sex with your iPad. The company who makes it, however, swears that it\u2019s a leap forward in virtual reality sex as you match the motions of your chosen POV porn video. Color us skeptical about the whole thing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We must say though that while the masturbation sleeve category of sex toys has absolutely blown up in recent years as men discover that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/five-questions-benefits-prostate-massaging\/\">penile pleasure doesn\u2019t just have to come from giving yourself a hand<\/a>. Consumers are clearly much more comfortable with purchasing them more and more, and we think it\u2019s simply because when they\u2019re made well, they\u2019re pretty amazing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sextech is the burgeoning new field of development where pleasure product technology is moving, and masturbation sleeves are on the front line. And no, we\u2019re not just talking about sticking them to the back of an iPad.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where once a masturbation sleeve was something you\u2019d just use to jerk and thrust to climax, sextech items like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/introducing-f1s-get-into-pole-position-with-lelos-new-male-pleasure-device\/\">LELO F1S<\/a> use sonic pulses that deeply resonate within your penis and the surrounding tissue for all-new levels of sensual bliss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And here\u2019s the exciting part: as VR technology and VR headsets are finding their way into more and more homes, the<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0SexTech toys<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will start being just as common a household item.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The LELO SexTech masturbators \u2013 the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/whats-the-difference-between-f1s-and-f1s-red\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">F1S Prototype<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">F1S Developer\u2019s Kit RED<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 are open-source, meaning that budding young developers and coders will be able to make of them whatever they want. Needless to say, this has exciting applications for virtual reality pleasure, as programmers will be able to match sensations from the F1S masturbation sleeve directly to the action taking place in a VR motion video.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Likewise, another programmer will be able to take feedback from within the F1S, say, your thrust speed or even your current arousal level, and have that influence the action taking place in your VR headset.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">True Virtual Reality sex toys may still be a ways off, however with some ambitious programmers and coders on the job using innovative products like the LELO SexTech F1S, it\u2019s a future that\u2019s not so distant after all.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Discover more sex toys for men:<\/h4>\n<p>[carousel_slide id=&#8217;43613&#8242;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018When I was your age, sex was something that took place between two flesh and blood people!\u2019 is something we will be saying to our grandkids.
