New pajamas let you "cyber hug" from across the internet.

Life is hectic we all know that. With the deluge of business trips our "on the go" lives require, we spend way too much time away from home and loved ones. Specifically those travelers with kids miss out on daily the interaction with their progeny. Thanks to the internet and telephones we can stay in contact (sight and sound) every day but still we're missing out on the touch and feel. Oh, but not anymore, a group of scientists in Singapore are developing a way to add that sense of touch to the experience.
The group's "cyber pajamas" can relay the warmth and feel of a far away person's touch by regulating pressure and temperature over different parts of the bluetooth garment. Thus allowing a parent to not only sooth their child with their voice and image but also give a "cyber hug" from anywhere across the world. This is a great idea. It allows one the chance to recreate the normal environment of being home and staying "in contact" with your kids.

Now while this is great, let's all be honest here. I'm more inclined to want that touch and feel garment on the wife/mom (see picture to left!). Now imagine touching that from across the globe. Ah yes, never worry about leaving your loved one at home for too long anymore. I'm sure its only a matter of time before these garments will get hooked up to adult sites, 976 numbers and adopted by the on-line adult community. I love technology.
