This Urban Jungle
Here's how you can kiss someone -- without actually locking lips

Want to kiss someone who's not actually there? Now you can with the 'Kissenger', a Singapore invented device that recreates the lip movements of both users in real time using two digitally connected artificial 'lips'. .

The device was invented by Hooman Samani, a Singapore artificial intelligence expert.

Says STOMPer neverbeenkissed:

"Indeed this still looks so much more 'romantic', and less mechanical that this 'kiss transmission' kit.

"More commercial, more quirky but still quite a far-fetched idea to me...

"Is kissing a plastic toy really better than nothing?"

LOL, people chill. The main idea of this product was to be able to allow couples who are at different parts of the world to be able to 'kiss' each other. Its not meant to replace the real kiss. Its either this, or kissing your webcam. I did this for my internship with the NUS Mixed Reality Lab people (Mr Hooman & the rest), and its really a good idea. It might seem a little far-fetched at first, but its a real good idea once you think a little deeper.

Some stomppers are really sooo damn stupid.
Just look at the comments here.

The product has an application.
It's meant to be used to kiss your partner over the internet when e.g, you are separated over a distance.

It's not meant to replace the real thing.

If one needs to kiss a plastic contraption to initiate the real thing ! I can't help but wonder at which stage in your life did it all go so seriously wrong for you ?
