iPhone Accessory Kissenger Redefines Long Distance Romance; Lets You And Your Partner Make Out From Miles Away

What a time to be alive! Who would've thought we'd live to this day where a smartphone accessory would make it possible for long distance lovers to smooch? For nihilists elsewhere, this isn't just creepy -- it actually comes off as horrifying. But, hey, ridiculousness isn't at all new these days and the arrival of Kissenger, an iPhone accessory that includes a robotic kissing pad, is actually the first of its kind. Weird yes, but innovative, too.

Kissenger, which calls itself the "world's first mobile kiss messenger," is a system that combines an iOs app and a huge plug-in detection pad that transmits kisses wirelessly to someone else who has both the app and the Kissenger pad. The kiss pad looks nothing like a human being's lips, but underneath the rubbery shell are "high precision force sensors," according to the Kissenger website. These sensors detect the force of the kiss and then duplicate it. The company adds that the lip pad encases tiny actuators that create a realistic make out session, at least for lovers.

As to who created this oddity, she's called Emma Yann Zhang, a woman driven to help overcome problems that come with long distance relationships, according to Slash Gear. While this should be the primary reason for the system's conception, the company notes two other usage scenarios.

First being for couples, which is given, second is for families. The Kissenger website shows a kid in London giving her grandma in Tokyo a peck on the cheek using the system. Its third potential usage is downright unsettling, as the company says it should do well for fans. It shouldn't come as no surprise that one of these days, one celeb decides to give out kisses, well not for real, but this rubber thingy should work.

So, there. You might find yourself one day wanting to try some strange technology so head on to the official site. The Kissenger team is still working on its retail release and who knows, one of these days, you'll find yourself literally making out with your iPhone.
