  • Let's use Sex Toy Scripts instead of Interactive

doublevr changed the title to Let's use Sex Toy Scripts instead of Interactive .

doublevr this is a good move imo. First time I saw the term "interactive script" I had no idea what it was, but this makes it clear off the bat 👍

Good change. Every time I see "interactive" I get excited for a second, thinking it's a game or something and then I realize it's just more haptics stuff.

ethicalperv thank you for the idea! It makes perfect sense since there is a lot of MIDI devices.
I see one potential limitation though - precision.
In MIDI specification (1.0 since 2.0 is not yet actually implemented in any device) there is only 19 message types that allow 14-bit value to be in 0-16383 range (which will be enough to have max precision of 0.001), other values are 7-bit in 0-128 range.
Do you believe it gives us enough precision for smooth operation?
Are there any other limitations we can hit with that solution?

    Do you believe it gives us enough precision for smooth operation?

    I guess it would depend on many factors such as the stroke length and maximum speed of the haptic machine. The lower resolution voices/channels could be used for more basic toys like vibrators/suckers/etc. Some toys might need more than one high resolution channel due to multiple vibrators, twisting motions, etc.

    There's no need for backwards compatibility though, since nobody is going to take these "songs" and play them on a MIDI device, the main motivation for using midi (or really, any other suitable, already well-established file format) is the availability of tools, libraries, and APIs to use in the code that will produce these files, rather than starting from scratch with a new format.

      While we're on the subject, we need to create a new VR video format that supports embedded scripts 🙂

        Things get a bit confusing as we going through internal debate

        Haptics is a general category for all devices that also includes sex toys, haptic suits and everything else. Indeed we can call scripts Interactive scripts

        We can use the following

        Haptics = sex toys, suits, wristbands, etc
        Haptics scripts = Interactive sex toy scripts, haptic suit interactive script

        Stroker is a kind of sex toy: Haptics->Sex Toys->Stroker, Multi-axis sex toy, Twisting, Pumping, Vagina etc.

        Haptics VR Porn is scripted VR porn for any haptic devices. I suggest we rather use Interactive Sex Toys VR porn scripts.

        Haptics scenes doesn’t make much sense for me as it’s rather Interactive Sex Toys videos. Or Scenes with Interactive Sex Toy Scripts.

        doublevr I guess more specifically it would be a new video container format, not the video format itself.

        But it would be nice to be able to embed the script as part of the video file.
