This Bizarre Tech Lets You Kiss Someone From Miles Away

The device, which works by simply plugging it into a phone and also via Bluetooth, not only transfers the sensation of a kiss through the mechanical movement of the fake lips, but it also measures the temperature and length of the kiss and transmits the same to the person on the other end, who also has the same device plugged into their phone. The app even records the sloppy sound of kissing on silicone lips, which is apparently important for conveying the “feels,” as well.
