MUST SEE! Real tickling machine!

If someone in the tickling community was good with technology they may be able to use this info to create a very effective tickling machine! See for yourself check out this link.
If you had someone tied down to a bed, this might be the ultimate tickling machine, if you could figure out how to use somthing that would actually tickle. The most important page in the link is this one, make sure to check this out.

Not Not are the same people behind the other Tickle Machine that looked like a childs toy tank (only with the tracks but no gun turret). Guess what, that also adjusted to the contours of ones body.

The point is they are not a commercial organisation, but instead a group producing perfomance art exhibits. Personally I don't believe either contraption would work beyond a mild stimulation or itch, because there is no human or social context in which the so called tickling is taking place.

Yeah but I dont think there needs to be. Im pretty sure i remember reading about somthing that said humans can be tickled by machines. I seen a web site once where they did experiments on it, and it worked. It doesnt really matter if there a commercial corperation or not. I was just saying if there ever is an effective tickling machine in the future it will probably use this kind of technology, and I personally think it is very possible.

Personally I hope there isn't, otherwise I would never go to work.

Well, this would be successful if two things were true:

The lee was in tight bondage, as any struggles he/she made would confuse the machine.

The lee could blindfolded and told a human being was tickling him/her. Some humans seem to have an emotional connection to tickling, and for them this would be nessecary. Some people, on the other hand, would not need this at all.

It remains very interesting visually, but I doubt it's effectiveness could approach that of a skilled human tickler. For one, human ticklers can communicate with the lee to determine more or less effective techniques. Maybe one day we'll have one -- but I know I won't be replaced any time soon.
