Having 3D printing technology to prototype and not relying upon outsourced development is key to its success, he said, adding it’s also enhancing adult relationships. “While we use technology to make our lives better every day, it seems that few companies have applied that thinking to making our sex lives better,” Osadca told BusinessWeek.

Grant Bechthold, VP of product development for Standard Innovation, which makes the vibrators, says it’s really about using tech for sexual health.”Tech can replace the human experience,” he told Mashable, “but we don’t want tech to replace it. It’s like contact lenses; we want a great user experience but don’t want to know it’s there.”He says men are typically threatened by these devices, but they shouldn’t be. “Tech as an enhancer creates a better user couple experience — it doesn’t interfere with the human touch, it helps to augment.”

As sex toys have quietly moved upmarket and into the mainstream, the past decade has already produced sleek designs, quieter motors, and even vibrators that work by remote control.

Bechthold foresees a brave new world where toys can move as never before, or stimulate sensitive bits using methods other than the tried-and-true vibrations. “There’s some really out-there material science being worked on,” he says. “There are materials that can twitch and move based on electrical stimulation.”
