Wow, First Base Never Looked So Sad: Kissenger, The Robotic Long-Distance Kiss Messenger

Nope, nothing creepy as hell going on here.

The Kissenger is a small, Skype compatible robotic pig that can sense a user's kiss and send the sensation to another user who's ALSO holding a f***ing pig-shaped robot to their lips. God, if this is the future I am like, soooooooooo over it. *emptying potion of immortality into toilet* "That was a juice-box." IT WAS SYMBOLIC.

"The lips are highly touch-sensitive, but can also be manipulated by motors inside the robot."


The robots are equipped with soft silicon pads that transmit lip movements between partners.

The Lovotics website suggests the Kissenger may appeal to singles and those who want to smooch a virtual character. The robots can use artificial intelligence (AI) to transmit those kinds of kisses, too.

Admittedly, I would call all my friends and put my wiener up to it. "Whoa bro -- you sure you want your junk that close to an active robot?" Good point -- I knew there was a reason I kept you around! Now, I want you to call my friend Randy and lay your penis on the receiver.

Hit the jump for a video demo of the sadness.

Would you kiss someone via robot messenger? [cbcnews]

Thanks to Chris, who doesn't understand why they made the thing look like a pig. Maybe it's not, Chris, maybe it's just somebody's reaaaaaaaaally ugly girlfriend.

    Seen here blatantly ignoring a customer to count his Goldfish cracker collection, a PR2 robot programmed to bartend prepares to get the pink slip. Then threaten to kill its manager. See? This is exactly why we shouldn't have robots in the workplace! Based on what I gathered... / Continue →

    First of all, the fact that sex tourism even exists depresses the hell out of me. I'll take a beach and a tropical drink over a prostitute aaaaaaany day. But that's just me, and I'm not a big ball of sadness, desperate to get his dangle-down played with. Enter robotic prosti... / Continue →

    Wanna drink an alien brain hemorrhage shooter like the one in the picture? Of course you don't. Unfortunately it's your birthday and your friends are really passive aggressive about picking birthday shots. Well, at least know what you're getting yourself into. SPOILER: A l... / Continue →

    Ugh, its like making out with a pig.

  • This is about retarded...

  • Anyone who thinks this isn't ending up in the porn industry is retarded.

  • What? No tongue?

  • i see this and it reminds me of Big Bang Theroy

    I WAS JUST BEING PLAYFUL

    but that was waaaayyy better! 
    I mean c'mon, they even used their tongues!

  • I can imagine it now:
    "Hey honey! Look what I just found on the internet! Finally we can bridge the gap in our long distance relationship!"
    "... I think we should start seeing other people."

    Still, if this doesn't cross the line for you, then you're destined to be together! (and also please don't have kids)

    sync one of these bad-boys up with a fleshlight, and then we'll talk business

  •  Damn, you beat me to it! :P

  • MorningPanda

    I was going to leave the same comment, almost word for word.

  • weaselmouse

    I was going to add that I'm disappointed it doesn't have a hole you can throw your tongue down. Or penis. What's the point.
