NEW HOPE, Pa. – Traditional “fucking machines” — motorized, piston-driven dildos — are no longer cutting-edge technology. The Shockspot Pleasure System is, though.

Imagine a voice-controlled fucking machine that incorporates the latest computer-controlled robotics, and you’ve got the Shockspot. One encounter with the device, and you’ll never again look at industrial robots in quite the same way.

Mark Smith owns Shockspot. He has more than 20 years’ experience in military and medical robotics and developed a patented microprocessor motion control system for medical robots.

Call us impressed … and envious.

YNOT.com: What separates Shockspot from previous generations of fucking machines?

Mark Smith: The Shockspot is a true robotic system that uses a closed-loop motion control system to generate very accurate position, speed and acceleration trajectories. The Shockspot will move to the positions at the speed and smoothness the operator desires.

Motion sequences can be programmed using the system’s software and stored or retrieved with user-friendly names. We also offer voice-control capability and a standalone remote to control the motion parameters without a PC.

How did the Shockspot come to be?

The product was developed to fill a void in the fucking machine market. Traditional machines only allow the speed to be adjusted while the machine is operating, and users are required to stop the machine and manually adjust the mechanical system to adjust the stroke length. Additionally, motion profile is not adjustable with traditional machines.

The Shockspot allows the depth, stroke, speed and smoothness to be adjusted on the fly without stopping the machine, since the positions are controlled by an on-board microprocessor system. A wireless Bluetooth option is also available.

How has the technology evolved since the first prototype?

Since the prototype first appeared, voice control, wireless control and a new internet-based control system have been developed, allowing the machine to be controlled from anywhere in the world.

How does the voice control system work?

The voice control allows users to control the machine by issuing voice commands. Operators can command the system to do a variety of things, such as move faster, move slower, etc.

What extra features have you added? Are new features on the horizon?

We have a Fleshlight adapter and a universal dildo adapter. A new option we are releasing will allow the system to be controlled from anywhere in the world.

Who buys this kind of equipment?

Our products serve all demographics: men, women, couples, rich, not-so rich, gay and straight people from all countries. The Shockspot is available in every country.

The big question: Can it take — well, give — a pounding over an extended period?

The Shockspot has been developed with high-grade materials that are meant to last a lifetime. It is an all-metal design that has been proven to last in the most demanding environments. Many cam studios and cam models have embraced the Shockspot as their machine of choice.
