An automated erotic stimulation device is a mechanical device used to stimulate a person erotically in a similar manner to penile penetration. It is a more sophisticated version of the much simpler vibrator. The device can be used by either sex to excite the anus or vagina.
A typical machine works by the transfer of rotational force from a motor to a directional motion on a shaft, which is tipped by a dildo.
These devices may be associated with, but are not limited to, BDSM play.
Another design consists of a dildo attached to the end of a rotating device such as an electric drill, which rotates to produce stimulation.
A Sybian is a device that consists of a saddle-like seat with a phallic rod in the center.
Safety
Automated erotic stimulation devices have been created commercially for penetration and stimulation. Excessive force may easily damage the delicate vagina, anus, and rectum; injury may result if a device is used incorrectly.
History
The vibrator was created to treat hysteria in Victorian women through medical orgasm induced by clitoral massage
Erotic provocation was delivered mechanically during the 19th century by such devices as air- or petroleum-powered vibrating tables, liquid jets, jolting chairs, swinging seats, and more. Electro-mechanical vibrators followed once electrical energy was harnessed.
Most of these were much larger and more powerful than today's standard devices, restricting ownership to the rich or to specialist medical centres. They resembled in size (though not in operation) what are now commonly termed fucking machines.
With mass production, vibrators grew smaller and cheaper, sharply curtailing the market for earlier models.
Modern automated erotic stimulation device differ from vibrators because they penetrate as well as throb. Mass attention is drawn to them on the Internet, while appetite for these powerful appliances has induced the establishment and growth of manufacturers to satisfy rising demand. Recently a new generation of these devices has hit the market under the name dildonics and bluedildonics, including TheToy a bluetooth enabled erotic stimulation device.
Changing Attitudes Within Society.
Within the adult toy industry there lies a niche market for mechanical stimulation machines that go far beyond what most of us know as vibrators. Vibrators now acceptable in high street stores give an indication at society's wide acceptance of such products. A few years ago such products were only available behind the dark closed doors of the back street sex shop.
Recently through media interest, in the main television, a vast interest in the world of mechanical stimulation machines has been created.
The VX1 is such a machine and currently falls into the category "F**king machine". The leading exponent of such machines is www.f**kingmachine .com (Warning this site contains pornography.)
The products on this web site look more at home in the workshop or garage, some look in need of a forklift truck to move them. What the VX1 does successfully is to package the mechanical stimulation machine in such a way that it would grace any bedroom in a female friendly form without losing any of the mechanical attributes of the F**king machine.
