Source: https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/655574/sex-robot-doll-video-realdoll-harmony-3-matt-mcmullen-christmasJoshua Nevett for Daily Star Sunday wrote:New “improvements” to the silicone RealDoll body, including warm skin, self-lubrication and touch sensors, will be available for version 3.0.
Matt previously said he was working on a self-lubrication function that is triggered when the robot is touched “in the right places”.
The cyborg maker, whose factory is based in San Diego, has now confirmed version 3.0 will be able to “self-lube” internally during sex “at the appropriate moment”.
Last year Matt said his firm was looking at several different options on how to heat sex robot skin.
One year on, Matt has mastered the technology, with “internal heating” set to be integrated into all Harmony 3.0 sex robots.
Harmony 3.0 will also be built with touch sensors that create “reactions in both movement and sound”.
“The official release of the robot will be the head system,” Matt said.
“But we’ll also be offering some peripheral improvements that can be made for sex robot bodies."
“Customers will be able to get a body equipped with internal heating, lubrication and touch sensors," he added.
“Those touch sensors will communicate with the AI so that you are able to create reactions in both movement and sound.
“There are going to be a lot of other peripheral options and upgrades people can opt for.
“We hope to have all of those upgrades available for bodies to match the heads, should people want to go that way.”

Re: RealDoll Realbotix Harmony 3 available by Christmas
I understand a lot of work went into it, but like iPods and computers, there will have to be enough demand and they will have to be mass produced in order for the cost to be low enough for people to buy.
If a person has a lot of money, they could probably get a real girl very easily.

Harmony has a sexy scottish accent in this video, and she shows a sense of scottish humour that made me laugh too.
Great post RL
@LBW...just because some may be loaded, it does not mean they choose to have or even want a real girl, especially one that is more interested in your bank account than who you are as a companion.

Re: RealDoll Realbotix Harmony 3 available by Christmas
Maybe Abyss could sell just the head for cheaper.
I understand a lot of work went into it, but they'll have to mass produce it, so that hopefully many people will buy it.
If they can bring it under $1,000 - that will be good.
A lot more money, perhaps billions, went into making an iPod or a cell phone, yet they got that under $1000
If cell phones costed $15,000, I don't think too many of them would sell.
This is how Ford got rich.
He did not invent the car, he figured out how to mass produce them.

Re: RealDoll Realbotix Harmony 3 available by Christmas
Sure, I would by 15 of them for that price.
So do you reckon your real girl will hang around after the 15 grand has been spent on her....OK...sure good luck with both these iniatives, perhaps your luck is different to mine.

Re: RealDoll Realbotix Harmony 3 available by Christmas
A color printer, a 3-D printer, a computer, all for under $1,000 - laughable years ago.
Who would have thought that cars would be affordable for most people?
Who would have thought you go to Europe for under $1,000 - round trip?
When I walk into a 99 can store, for the life of me, I can't figure out how they can sell those items for so cheap.
Now they have airfare to Europe for $100 - $200. I don't how they can do it and make a profit.
I see cruises for under $75 a day. How do they profit, considering how much a ship costs, and how much gas it uses. I would think gas alone would cost way more than $75 a day.
The cost of building the ship would probably take years to offset.
It all comes down to demand. If there is a high demand for this, the price will come down.

Re: RealDoll Realbotix Harmony 3 available by Christmas
RD Abyss sells just over 600 dolls in a year, so at a grand a pop thats 600000 per anum gross sales revenue, minus the costs of production, (including wages, lease costs, raw materials and plant upkeep and maintence, building costs including either rent, or rates and service fees, etc) so I am not thinking that the margin is there for 1000 a pop retail price dolls, even if they could sell 10000 a year (as the afforementioned costs would also increase exponentially).
There is a reason they cost more, as these costs in the USA are considerably higher than in the Chinese industry.
Just putting it out there, not saying you are wrong, but it is most unlikely this will occur, and if it does...as stated put me down for 15 of them.
However, if you think that real girl expenses are likely to become cheaper...feel free to post a link to where that is happening. I will bookmark it to favourites and book a ticket.

Re: RealDoll Realbotix Harmony 3 available by Christmas
Now, $15k for a sex robot of this quality is still amazing. Until now you’d need to pay a quarter million dollars or more for a one-off that wasn’t nearly as sexy. The question is: who has $15k to spend on a first-generation commercial sex robot? In ten years, the sex bot you’ll be able to get with that same $15k will be two orders of magnitude better.
Still, I hope all the wealthy Abyss fans out there do kick in and buy one. Gotta keep the project improving until it reaches the kind of realism we all want it to.

Re: RealDoll Realbotix Harmony 3 available by Christmas
Right now this is all high tech, experimental and limited production. Abyss will be able to easily sell these dolls for $15K for the right buyers.
Just like you see lots of Honda's & Chevy's on the road. Not too many Lamborghini's.
I'll never be able to afford a robotic doll and it doesn't bother me. Not the body style I want anyway.
It's smart of Abyss to go for doll advancement and smaller customer base than try to compete w/ China for the TPE doll market.

Yeah, but the guys that can afford Lamborghini's generally aren’t hurting for female companionship.rubherkitty wrote:RE: Cheap robotic dolls for the masses? Maybe in 20 yrs.
