Robot lips invented for long-distance kissing – video

A Chinese startup has invented a long-distance kissing machine that transmits users' kiss data collected through motion sensors hidden in silicon lips, which simultaneously move when replaying kisses received.

The device, MUA, also captures and replays sound and warms up slightly during kissing, and users can download kissing data submitted via an accompanying app by other users

Online reviews were mixed. One person described it as feeling like 'a warm pacifier', while many complained about its 'lack of tongue'
