Dreamcam are an ambitious VR porn company that is currently focusing on cornering the market in live VR sex cams. Of course, live VR sex is perhaps the holy grail of the adult VR industry, with unlimited moneymaking potential to the first company to truly deliver it – especially if it also ‘feels’ like sex. It would appear that Dreamcam certainly have their sights on that, as today they announced they are working on a ‘Dreamtouch exoskeloton’ that would allow virtual sex in the metaverse.
Daniel Goldin, vice-president of Dreamcam, spoke to British tabloid ‘The Sun‘, and outlined his plans to enable full body virtual sex.
Dreamtouch is the name of an exoskeleton that Dreamcam is working on.
It’s predominately made up of smart gloves and a virtual reality headset that could give you a very realistic sensory experience.
Goldin told The Sun: “The exoskeleton connects to VR gloves that activate your sensory nerves through innovative, high-speed tech.
“This sends electrical signals across your body to give you a smooth, real-time experience, all in VR.
Goldin is a little short on detail, but what he does offer sound suspiciously like psuedo-scientific waffle.
“Dreamcam collects and analyzes a set of spatial coordinates for all physical objects using Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs).
“This allows us to mimic the full body sexual experience than an in-person encounter provides.”
I’m a bit sceptical that we will see this exoskeleton any time soon. Not only because it seems unlikely that a VR porn company struggling to dominate a niche (live VR cams) of a niche (VR porn) would have the resources to develop something like this, but also because the same company has made headlines twice already this year for similarly bizarre claims that are likely little more than marketing stunts. In February it revealed a sex toy that allowed users to bonk their PlayStation consoles, and only a couple of weeks ago made viral news with the announcement that it had built ‘masturbation pods‘ for its employees to relieve themselves during office hours.
