Possibilities really open up with the telemetry translation api -- realizing that the telemetry is digital, and only has to be encoded once to be read for any purpose for any supported device is huge. We expect to be very busy for a long time fleshing out all the applications we have in mind. One that we're working on is using a users webcam to monitor heart rate (similar to the xbox one + kinect) and use that information to create a soft vibration that pulses in their partners device in time, so when one gets "excited" the other can feel the haptic feedback and vice versa simultaneously.. This is some real scifi stuff we're doing and it's very exciting

Upvote for "fleshing out". Very interesting ideas. I can only imagine how far this concept can be taken.

This is the future. I hope this would be a platform where developers could use the API and create more sci fi stuffs. Also, where can i hack on this api?

Have you talked through what the company will do once developers start creating FriXion experiences with virtual children? Are you taking a hands-off approach (no pun intended) to what people do with the technology, or do you plan on vetting each application? If presented with an abuse scenario, would you cooperate with law enforcement to find who is "connecting" with (or creating) these children? I'm not knocking the tech or your intention to make a fun product - just throwing out some important questions.

  FriXion complies with all lawful requests and makes a pro-active effort to review and respond to all reports of policy violations. While we're not responsible for what people get up to with robots on their own time (who cares if a highschool kid uses it to masturbate alone in his room with the internet off), using our platform to break the law is never ok.
