There are currently web based adult entertainment services that allow customers to chat with performers for a fee. In the current web based adult entertainment services, the interaction between customers and performers is generally through on-line chat combined with a life streaming video connection. Performers are female or male actors who pose for the customers and interact with customers through the Internet. On-line chat is generally the process wherein persons connected to the Internet type words that are transmitted and displayed on other people's screen. Compared to pre-recorded on-line photos and movies, these web based Adult Services offer the customer has a sense of interaction and connection that increases the intensity of the fantasy that is the product of the Web based service. For example, the customer may ask, through on-line chat, the model to wave her left hand. When the model responds, the customer knows that the interaction is occurring in real time with the model displayed on his or her computer screen. Currently, on-line services limit the interactive content that they offer their customers to on-line chat and a streaming video and audio feeds to the customer. The present invention is an on-line service where customers are able to physically interact with the perfrormers. To that end, the present invention includes a Remote Interaction System comprising two interaction devices described below and depicted in the attached figures.
As shown in FIG. 1, the Remote Interaction System of the present invention generally includes an input device (300) for receiving physical inputs from a user, digitizing and transmission components (312) and a Processing Unit (304) for transmitting an electronic signal related to said physical inputs to a remote location, an output device (306) and associated signal processing component (314) for creating mechanical movements of a phallic object in a remote location, a video camera (308) for imaging mechanical movements and their effects at remote user's location, video digitizing and transmission components (316) for sending a live video feed back to user's location, and display means (310) through which user can observe movements at remote location as portrayed in said live video feed so that user can better control and perceive the effects of said physical inputs.
The Input Device
The input device (300) of the system of the present invention is shown in FIG. 2. As depicted, the system includes a tube (1) for containing a pneumatic fluid (11) a fitting (2) on one end of said tube where said fitting is flexible in its plane as shown in FIG. 3 and where said fitting includes a flattened, elongated bag (3) as also shown in FIG. 2 so that said bag protrudes into tube (1) when the fitting (2) is attached to the tube (1) and where said bag (3) is then open to the air outside of the tube (1). The system furthermore comprises a second fitting (4) attached to the tube on the end opposite to the first fitting (1) where second fitting seals said tube and where said second fitting is attached to a hose (5) which hose penetrates said second fitting (4) so that it's content is in communication with fluid in tube (1). Hose (5) also penetrates the third fitting (6) which third fitting covers one end of a second tube (7) so that fluid from first tube (1) is in communication with fluid in second tube (7). The second tube includes a piston (8) where the piston bars fluid that enters second tube (7) through third fitting (6) from hose (5). The system furthermore includes a fourth fitting (9) that seals second tube (7). Piston (8) includes a rod (12) which rod protrudes out of second tube (7) through a hole in fourth fitting (9). Piston (8) is supported from a direction opposite of third fitting (6) by a coil spring (10) which coil spring presses against the piston (8) and the fourth fitting (9) so that a fluid (11) is always under pressure and so that the piston (8) and rod (12) always return to a rest position after the system has undergone a perturbation. In the current embodiment the fluid in the second tube (7) is enclosed in a flexible balloon (13) which balloon ensures that the fluid does not leak past the piston (8). The system of the current invention furthermore includes a wheel (14) comprising holes (15) near its perimeter which wheel is in contact with rod (12) in such a way that wheel (14) spins when the rod (12) moves. The system includes a light emitting device (16) and light detection device (17) where said light emitting and detecting devices are positioned such that light can shine from emitting device (16) through one of holes (15) in wheel (14) to light detecting device (17) if the wheel is positioned in specific orientations and light is blocked by wheel (14). otherwise. System of the present invention also includes processing circuitry (18) where this circuitry processes inputs from light detection device (17) to yield digital electronic data for transmission, storage, and processing in a CPU (19) which electronic data relates to the amount and direction of rotation of the wheel (14).
Since bag (3) is open on the outside of first tube (I) it forms an orifice in the tube. If this orifice is filled with an object, fluid in first tube (1) is displaced and forces, through hose (5) and balloon (13), the piston (8) to move toward fourth fitting (9). As piston (8) moves, rod (12) moves accordingly and causes wheel (14) to spin. Processing circuitry (18), receives data from light detecting device and outputs digital data for use in the CPU (19) which data is related to the amount of displacement cause by the inserted object. If the object is extracted from the orifice, the coil spring (10) forces piston (8) to move back to its original position. Rod (12) moves with piston (8) and causes wheel (14) to spin accordingly. Again, processing circuitry (18), receives data from light detecting device and outputs digital data for use in the CPU (19) which data is related to the now diminishing amount of displacement cause by the inserted object.
The Output Device
FIG. 4 shows the output device (201) of the system of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the output device includes a motor (100) and driver circuitry (101) for controlling the speed and direction of said motor (100). Driver circuitry (101) receives data from CPU (102) which data is related to data generated by processing circuitry (18) of the input device and transmitted by CPU (19) of the input device and driver circuitry causes motor (100) to turn in accordance with said data. The output shaft of motor (100) is attached to a spring coil (103) so that said spring coil rotates around its long axis as the motor's shaft turns. Inside spring coil (103) and oriented along its main axis, is a pin (104) which pin has two arms (105) protruding traverse to the pin through the coil as shown in FIG. 5. Said arms attach to a hollow thrusting tube (106) which thrusting tube has the same main axis as the coil and which thrusting tube surrounds the spring coil (103) and pin (104) assembly. Said thrusting tube (106) has a fin (107) on its outside surface which fin is oriented along the main axis of the thrusting tube. The system furthermore comprises a steadying tube (108). where the inside diameter of said steadying tube is slightly larger then the outside diameter of the thrusting tube and where the steadying tube (108) has a groove (109) on its inside surface which groove is slightly larger in size than the fin (107) on the thrusting tube (106). Thrusting tube (106) is positioned inside steadying tube (108) so that the fin (107) is in the groove (109). Thrusting tube (106) is flanged at its base so that movement through the steadying tube is ended when the thrusting tube's base meets the steadying tube's base. Steadying tube (108) is affixed to the base (110) of the output device (201) where the base (110) contains the motor. The output device (201) includes a phallic object (111) which phallic object is affixed to thrusting tube (106).
Based on digital data that is passed from CPU (102) to driver circuitry (101), driver circuitry (101) causes motor (100) to turn at various speeds and in both directions. As motor (100) turns, spring coil (103) turns and this causes pin (104) and arms (105) to move in a direction away from or towards motor (100) depending on the direction of rotation of spring coil (103). As the pin (104) and arms (105) move, the thrusting tube (106) and the phallic object (111) are caused to move accordingly.
The output device of the present invention provides a means for creating a thrusting motion of a phallic object based on digital data received from a processor. The phallic object is supported by a spring so that the force of impact against obstructing walls can be softened.
FIG. 5 shows an alternate design of the output device. As shown in FIG. 5, motor (200) moves and arm (202), which arm swings around the axis (204) of the motor (202) as said axis (204) rotates. Arm (202) is threaded through a loop (206) which loop is attached to the end of a thrusting tube (208), which thrusting tube is threaded through a steadying tube (210) where the inside diameter of the steadying tube (210) is slightly larger then outside diameter of the thrusting tube (208). Steadying tube (210) and motor (200) are affixed to a supporting plate (220) and these components are enclosed in a enclosure (212) where said enclosure has a holes so that steadying tube (210) partially protrudes out of said enclosure and so that thrusting tube (208) protrudes through steadying tube (210) out of said enclosure (212). Based on digital data that is passed from CPU (214) to driver circuitry (216), driver circuitry (216) causes motor (200) to turn at various speeds and in both directions. As motor (200) turns, arm (202) turns and this causes thrusting tube (208) to move in a direction along the axis of steadying tube (210) where direction depends on the direction of rotation motor (202). Phallic object (218) is affixed to thrusting tube outside of enclosure (212). Therefore, the thrusting tube (208) and the phallic object (218) are caused to move in response to digital data passed from CPU (214).

Based in this data, the Authorization Credit Server (520) processes the request which data and the request is either approved or declined. If the request is approved, Customer's data is stored in the Database (730) and Customer is issued a username and password for entry into Business' website. Once Customer enters the website, Customer is presented with website content by Website Server (600). This content comprises images of performers who are available for performances. The Website lets the Customer submit requests for performances through the Request Authorize Form (720). Upon the request for a performance, the Website Server (600) submits Request Authorize Form (720) containing Customer's data from Database (730) to the Transaction Server (500) along with a request for sufficient funds to purchase the performance. If this request is approved, Customer gains access to a web page on the Website Server (600) where Customer can view live video of performer which video is served by Video Server (770).
Also, if the request is approved, a communication data stream is opened on the Internet between Customer's computer and Performer's computer so that Customer can control over the Output Device (201) in the performer's location and so that Customer's Input Device (300) is connected with the Output Device (201) in Performer's location as described above. This communication, in the preferred embodiment, is controlled by local software components, Toy Communication Components (790).
FIG. 7 shows a flow diagram describing Customer's progression through Business' online service. After Customer's entry into Business' website (800), the system branches non-members to a New Member Sign-up form (830). If Customer is a member, Customer moves to the Performer Selection page (820) where Customer views images of available performers and selects a performer for a show. Once a Performer is selected, Customer is presented with an Authorize Credit form (830) where Customer gives explicit permission to charge the credit card on file based on the credit information in the database and based on the price to be charged for the show. If Customer agrees to the transaction, the system attempts authorization for credit (840). If the credit has been approved, Customer is presented with a private webpage (860) where Customer interacts with the selected performer. The system initiates the video feed from the performer's location to Customer's location (870) and the system creates data connection between Customer's location and Performer's location for interaction between Input Device (300) and Output Device (201). After the session (900) Customer logs out of the website (910).
A business, adult Web service, and system have been disclosed that allow customers to have improved perception and control of erotic acts that occur at a Web based adult service provider's location. One component of the system measures the displacement of a fluid that occurs when an object is inserted into an orifice at the user's location to create digital data, which data can be transmitted to a remote location. Another component of the system responds to the data signal that is received at the remote location and generates movements of a phallic which movements are related to said data signal. Another component of the system captures video showing said movements and/or their effects at the remote location and transmits them to the user's location for display on a monitor.
FIG. 8 shows yet another alternate design of the output device. As shown in FIG. 8, motor (502) moves an arm (504), which arm swings around an axis of the motor (502) as said axis rotates. Arm (504) connects through swivel pin (503) to a rod (506) which rod is attached through swivel pin (507) to the end of a thrusting rod (508), which thrusting rod is is attached to steadying rod (510) through a sliding mechanism comprising bearings so that the thrusting rod moves freely in the direction of its long axis. Steadying rod (510) and motor (502) are affixed to a supporting plate (520) and these components are enclosed in an enclosure (512) where said enclosure has holes so that thrusting rod (508) can partially protrude out of said enclosure (512). Based on digital data that is passed from CPU (514) to driver circuitry (516), driver circuitry (516) causes motor (502) to turn at various speeds and in both diredtions. As motor (502) turns, arm (504) turns and this causes thrusting rod (508) to move in a direction along the axis of steadying rod (510) where direction depends on the direction of rotation motor (502). Phallic object (518) is affixed to the thrusting rod outside of enclosure (512). Therefore, the thrusting rod (508) and the phallic object (518) are caused to move in response to digital data passed from CPU (514).
