If absence makes the heart grow fonder, then the Hug Shirt adds a sensual experience to the equation, working with Bluetooth and special HugMe Java software to let you push buttons on your cellphone to hug your significant other miles away. As long as both of you are wearing this shirt that has sensors and actuators that simulate a hug, you can spread the love far and wide, transmitting data such as hug pressure, skin temperature, heart rate and hug duration.
Although it's just a design concept so far, it's yet another advance in the march toward total teledildonics, which we've been relentlessly tracking for you for a while now. Check out the pics of this babe getting hugged all over:
This isn't the first we've seen of this concept. A year ago, someone thought of this idea of hugs-over-SMS using some sort of weird handheld device, but that just resulted in a text message on the other side. Now the touchy-feely extends to a shirt that actually tries to hug you. Where will it go next?
