Are you and your significant other separated by land and water? Well, this definitely not creepy device released by a technology company in China will let you get some action despite the distance difference. 

Working as a phone attachment, it is equipped with warm and moveable silicon lips and marketed for long-distance lovers through China’s online shopping website Taboo. 

Called Remote Kiss, the invention’s leading designer, Jiang Zhongli, said he was inspired by his own long-distance relationship to find a way to reconnect to his loved one. 

“In my university, I was in a long-distance relationship with my girlfriend so we only had contact with each other through the phone. That’s where the inspiration of this device originated,” Zhongli explained. 

The device is equipped with pressure sensors and actuators to mimic a real smooth kiss by replicating ‘pressure, movement and temperature’ characterised by normal human lips. 

The device can also reportedly, get this, replicate the noise one makes when kissing. It works through an app that users download on their phones and then plugged into the device via the charging port. 

Partners must then couple up in the app so they can begin a video call and kiss each other through the internet. However, users can also ‘upload’ their kisses in the app for other users to experience… 

We’ll let you digest all of this information at your own pace.
