CHICAGO—Brian Sloan, inventor of the Autoblow 2 and Slaphappy, has proven himself a winner in the crowdfunding game with campaigns to create two sex toys. Will his next online gambit also prove clickworthy?
Sloan's Autoblow 2 began its life in 2014 as a crowdfunded blowjob machine, but Sloan plans to repurpose the male masturbator into a robotic vagina. On June 15, the company behind the Autoblow, Very Intelligent Ecommerce Inc., opened a Vaginal Beauty Pageant website for photo submissions and voting.
The goal?
By putting nearly $10,000 of prize money up for grabs, the company hopes to find and make 3D scans of the world’s three most attractive vaginas. Autoblow will use the latest 3D scanning technology to replicate them onto a new series of Autoblow-compatible sleeves.
Women may make photos of their privates public on the contest website, and visitors to the site will vote on the vaginas they consider to be the most attractive. The women attached to the vaginas earning the top three places will win respectively $5,000, $2,500 and $1,250 in addition to trips to Los Angeles to undergo vaginal 3D scanning. The 3D scans will be used to replicate the winners' vaginas onto a new series of Autoblow sleeves at what the company says will be "micron-level accuracy."
The Autoblow Vaginal Beauty Contest gives rise to a new use for high-end 3D scanning technology previously used in video games, films, the medical industry, and manufacturing processes. The winners' vaginas will be scanned by a 3D scanner capable of accuracy in the range of 100 microns, or the width of a human hair.
“Traditional mold-making processes can replicate body parts for sex toys in a way that is only about 80 percent accurate due to how many steps are involved from the wet cast to the final production. But our 3D scanning method will allow us to skip several accuracy-degrading steps and photo-realistically replicate these vaginas onto production molds. The result will be an industry-first, strikingly realistic series of sleeves for the Autoblow,” said Autoblow inventor Sloan.
Contestants may enter and the public is invited to vote at VaginaContest.com. Winners may choose to remain anonymous.
