原文: Vibrating Ring Guides You To The Right Spot

Ring GPS


I hate to disappoint anyone, but although this may look like some sort of complicated sex toy, it’s actually a GPS interface. Each ring contains a vibrator that guides you to your own personal finish line with combinations of gentle stimulating buzzes to direct you (via your fingers) to go forwards, backwards, left, and right. British designer Gail Knight developed this device as “a way of helping women feel safe in areas they are unfamiliar with.” Not all of the electronics will fit into the rings, so the device includes a wireless remote that lets you input up to 8 characters, which is about enough for a zip code. A zip code is awfully general area in which to navigate, and most women I know (yes, I know a few actual women) would prefer to be able to reach a much more specific destination. If they ever reach production, these vibrating rings could do wonders to help get yourself off the beaten track. Currently nothing more than a titillating concept.

Seriously, it’s not a sex toy.

我不想让大家失望,但是虽然这个看起来像某种复杂的性玩具,它实际上是个GPS导航工具。每只戒指都有一个振动器,随着它温和、略带刺激的嗡嗡振动,指引你(通过手指)向前、向后、向左、向右,最终把你带到目的地。英国设计师Gail Knight将此设备拓展成“帮助女性在其不熟悉的地区感到安全的方式”。不是所有的电子装置都可以戴在手上,因此该设备包括一个无线遥控,你可以输入最多8个字符,大约可以满足邮政编码的位数。邮政编码是比较常见的导航方式,我认识的多数女性(是的,我确实认识几位)想到达更精确的位置。如果将其投入生产,这些振动戒指可以创造奇迹,帮你打破常规。目前这种戒指还是博您一笑的概念机型。

我很严肃的说,这不是性玩具。
