gPod Virabtor The Newest Japanese Sex Aid

The Japanese love technology so much that now even sex toys are on the cutting edge.

The gPod vibrator, is designed to respond automatically to sounds picked up by an accompanying handset, which can plug into anything from a telephone to a music player to a television. The sounds it receives are then detected by low, medium and high music frequency sensors and sent on to a distinctly phallic joystick.

When activated, the user experiences a chorus of vibrations that correspond to the chosen music or voices. According to Ichiro Kameda, the gPod’s inventor,

“You can use it in many ways, for example hooking it up to your mobile phone… so one of the ideas is that you can use it here in Tokyo when your boyfriend in New York is talking to you on the phone.”

Kameda said he had spent four years trying to design a product when he hit upon the concept, although he declined to say how the idea came to him.

The gPod made a splash at the first-ever sex toy expo in Tokyo, Joymind were just one of the nearly 160 companies or groups displaying their products and services at the three day Adult Treasure Expo 2007, also known as SEXPO, where they announced retail prices at ¥25,000, or approx $243.

There is an already accessory on the market for the ipod which incorporates the same kind of technology. Although it’s difficult to say who developed the technology first, Apple started fighting the Japanese company when the latter started applying for trademarks around the world, eventually sending Japanese lawyer and repeated requests to stop using the gpod trademark. The company laughed off Apples requests and said they would fight if Apple ever decides to sue.
