BOSTON—Berman Innovations, makers of The Semenette and PopDildo, has been awarded a utility patent for the technology behind the Semenette.
“Being issued this patent is one of my proudest business accomplishments to date,” said CEO and founder Stephanie Berman. “It is a very long and arduous process to apply for a patent, and to be granted one is an incredible personal achievement. I am confident in my unique technology, and having the patent to protect it is something for which I am truly grateful.”
US 9,301,779 B2 provides protections for the dildo and its replaceable pump and tubing system, designed to prevent infection and other health issues.
The Semenette and its second iteration, POPDildo, allow partners to mimic traditional intercourse through its proprietary inner tubing and pump system, complete with ejaculation—something that sets it apart from both traditional dildos and “party”-style ejaculating toys.
“The invention generally relate[s] to devices for artificial insemination, and more particularly, to devices that mimic ejaculation,” reads the patent documentation. “[Berman’s device] includes a dildo member having an internal channel for receiving a tubing, connected to a pumping mechanism and associated pumping arm, wherein fluid may be drawn into the dildo member through the pumping mechanism and discharged through the internal tubing at the distal end.”
