Simroid the Retarded Robot's Sensitive Mouth Trains Dentists, Perverts
Posted by Adam Frucci at 7:45 AM on November 29, 2007
Say hello to Simroid, a new robot from Japan designed to help train dentists. Forgive me for being a little off-colour here, but this thing looks like it's better suited to give BJs, but it's looking a little too downsy to sell well in any of Japan's numerous sex shops. In any case, it's loaded up with sensitive teeth so it can say "that hurts" if it gets stabbed in the gums or something. It also has a gag reflex so it can react if an "instrument" is stuck down its throat. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to step away from the keyboard before I write jokes about this thing that'll get me fired. Must… practice… restraint… [IT Media via Pink Tentacle]

how about a BJ from a woman whose teeth haven't come in yet?
(I'm going to hell for writing that, and you're going to hell for laughing at it. Or not.)

@aynaiya: What's the alternative? A BJ from a woman with no teeth? Maybe when I'm 80.

With a name like that, I would have guessed it was to train proctologists (and the facial expression is pretty close for that exam, too...except the eyes should be wider open).

I think she just has some serious swelling...maybe impacted molars? Good thing she's at the dentist!

"She" will aid greatly in the training of dental practitioners and dentists but I didn't notice in the video something I personally feel is an important capability: does she spit or swallow?

This is just completely retarded and useless. If there's one thing I learned on my visit to Japan it was that Japanese people DO NOT go to the dentist! Most of them had smiles that made the British look attractive.

If you want a good BJ simulator, get rid of the teeth AND the gag reflex.

uh, I speak the Japanese, so I will loosely translate the first few lines...
He is basically giving ball size commands for tea-bag evaluation.
"hogi no mas" is "caucasian white man balls"
"nagi no mas" is "black guy balls"
"somo no mas" is "Inuit balls during Febuary" (notice the smaller mouth size, because of the obvious frozen balls of the eskimos)
I got as far as "sweaty columbian balls after riding a steed in heat for 12 minutes" at which point I had to go to the bathroom. I think its amazing what they are doing in Japan to further tea-bagging research. Its sad to think that over 14 men a year loose a testicle to improper tea-bag implementation. Hopefully science will be able to further their knowledge of tea-bagology and men (as well as women) around the world would be able to live happier and more fulfilling lives without loosing any testicles.

It's jaw contains gears that may or may not be hooked up to hydraulics or pneumatics.
You all can stick your naughty bits in that new-fangled Chinese finger-trap if you want, but don't come crying to me with your bloody severed groins when the droid goes all "Kill All Humans!!! Especially The Male Humans!!!" on you.
I wouldn't put my homunculus in a toaster, a garbage disposal, pencil sharpener, or pool intake valve and I'm certainly not putting it in this mechanized man-trap.

What? All this technology and they couldn't program the servos in it's mouth to toggle an open/close position? I can understand the vocalizing the speech but I think they can do better. Also, don't know about you but I can't say crap when I'm sitting at a Dentist chair with all kinds of dental instruments picking at my chompers. I think they should drop some of the comprehensible speech and do more hand gesture and face making programming.

@calaverasgrandes: Kowai indeed!
That was just freaky to look at, and watch it respond to the commands it was given. There was a lot of editing going on, but freaKy for the most part.
Still, no robot sim is going to come close to the sensitivity of the human mouth.
