I know this is old, but I love this. You can train yourself to be super responsive to phantom sense in VR.--learning self hypnosis helps. I can sometimes cum this way. It's pretty freaking incredible.

Check it out, there are these new startups popping up all about the phantom sense. You got Tripp, BrainWavesXR, and Ohmydoll body rub (just machines/no humans) where you can have a wild time with some dolls and other tech, and get a VR experience with the phantom sense feeling. It's in Montreal, Quebec City, and even in Edmonton where I'm at! Ohmydoll partnered up with Brain Waves XR, and they've got this thing called Flow Multisensory VR process that you can feel in your brain without even having to touch anything. Pretty wild, right?

I decided to give Ohmydoll a try in Edmonton because I was intrigued more than anything else. I've experienced the phantom sense before while using VRChat, and what they offer seemed like something similar. They offered me a choice between the intense flow, horny flow, and admiration flow for my session, so I tried all three demos. The demo VR porn content was the same for all of them, but for some reason, I felt the action was wild and intense during the intense demo, and then I felt admiration during the admiration demo. Ultimately, I chose the horny flow, and I asked the host to stop the demo and pay because I couldn't wait any longer to get into the action. The feeling of touches and intimate action felt real, and the phantom sensation stayed with me for the entire 2-hour session. I felt horny for almost the entire time, until I had no energy left. I can see a future where VR porn is combined with the phantom sense, and I hope that one day we'll be able to enjoy it directly at home.

    rerun119 I don't quite understand. The Ohmydoll looks like it is real dolls. Do you watch porn and then feel a doll at the same time?

    Same. This looks potentially interesting, but not sure how I understand how this applies to phantom sense or VR.

        rerun119 I will try to explain it as best I can. It is difficult to understand without experiencing it yourself. The experience is a combination of VR and physical interaction (blowjob-anal-vaginal) using dolls. The dolls' skin feels like real, physical penetration feels real, making the experience unique. The quality of VR immersion and the mood options (such as horny, intense, and desire) add to the experience. When you wear the headset and immerse yourself, you feel like you are part of the action and feel the mood you have chosen. The dolls are accessories that enhance the feelings created primarily by the VR immersion. I do not know where you live, but hopefully one day you will have the chance to explore this experience. Go without judgment and you will be pleasantly surprised.

          Thank you. Yes, I understand that. I don't understand how most of the links the OP sent us to apply.

          I've developed my phantom sense/phantom touch (they are pretty much the same thing) capabilities over the last 10-15 years. Before VR headsets and porn become available, I would set up multiple 3D monitors (Asus used to make a great one that turned any video into 3d with the touch of a button), extend the video player across all the screens, and surround myself with them and watch POV porn .

          Hypnosis audios and video can help develop the sense. Some recreational drugs do as well. Binaural beats too. Combining them all can be a trip.

          I'm curious as to how using sex dolls develops the ability to experience phantom touch--because that is REAL touch.

          I'm not knocking the experience. I've often thought of getting a doll because I'm guessing using one combined with VR is a mind-blowing experience. Now imagine a doll with a Keon type interactive toy built in.

            JohnEd Here is an article that talks about the phantom sense and how they applied it

            SLR should team up with Brain Waves XR--working together, the two companies could put together some mind-blowing stuff.

                mebejoe It's actually something you would have to train yourself in it's current form. We can't do actual mind control yet 😛

                  This all sounds like what a heard them talking about on a radio show yesterday. They said the US government is worried because young guys are not even trying to get married or have a girlfriend. They are worried about the future population of the country. They said guys just watch porn instead. They didn't even bring up VR or this kind of stuff. Just wait until every guy has a VR headset and phantom touch. The country is going to be in big trouble but planet earth is going to be thanking us.
