File Under: Really Needs to Get a Life!
An NYU student who apparently works too hard, found the time to design a virtual girlfriend. New York Magazine describes it as single mattress… On it: a lithe brunette. She’s perfectly quiet, but once you sit or lie down, she responds to your every move. Lie on your back, she snuggles up right next to you in a log position. Curl up in the fetal position, she spoons. The only hitch: She’s 2-D.
Drew Burrows (the student) explained as he demonstrated his invention, an “infrared sensitive” light projection (meaning it reacts, and the projected woman moves, based on an infrared sensor) called INBED.
However, this is a clever idea, and the research, likely patentable technology and intellectual property behind this will make a fortune, and the guy will have no problem finding a girlfriend – a real one.
