USB motor control dongle, and SecondLife

Post by chained »

I've been hesitant to post this here, because I feel like I'm promoting other peoples products, but there seems to be a lot of interest in remote interaction here, so what the hell.

First, here's a link to a plug and play USB motor control dongle, the output can drive up to 5V at 200mA, more than enough to directly drive many commercially available toys, the most obvious being vibrating eggs, but it can also drive solenoids (for locks) and linear actuators (for back and forth motion). Multiple dongles can be plugged into the same computer:

Next, a quick easy and fun way to interact with these devices. SecondLife, http://www.secondlife.com is a virtual world where you create an avatar, and interact with other peoples avatars. Many people use it for many different things, from live music, to business meetings, to role play in various scenarios, but the obvious interest here is virtual sex. A few "inworld" companies offer ways to physically interact with the real world person at the keyboard, but I'm only going to point you to one, because they use the above mentioned USB dongle. Xcite! has various interactive parts for your avatar, and a list of real world toys that plug directly into the USB dongle above:

There are other companies there, that have developed other interactive devices, including virtual bondage devices that interact with real world bondage devices, etc. ... go explore.

Aaaaa....
They beat me to what I was working for in my adventure game... :(
(But I bet they had a head start :) )
If it is compatible, I'll see if I can work that into my game...
Thanks...

If by "it" you mean the USB dongle, it's just a tool, you can use it with almost anything, if you mean SecondLife, yeah, they've been around for a long long time.

Gotcha ... I don't know about a command line interface, as in DOS prompt commands, but I do know people who are coding in C++ and Java.

what other companies have done bondage toys?

I am aware of the Xcite stuff and have even used it but would be very interested in more.
