‘Brainwave Love Checker’ Will Pick Your Ideal VR Girlfriend by Reading Your Mind

A VR headset + sensors = digital matchmaking.

With all the news about VR and sex being the Information Age’s chocolate and peanut butter, it can sometimes feel like that’s all developers are thinking about.

But a new piece of technology unveiled at the recent Tokyo Game Show demonstrates that at least someone is thinking beyond sex—and into matchmaking.

Albeit of the synthetic variety.

According to Rocketnews24, The Noha (Japanese for “Brainwave”) Love Checker is a virtual reality headset with special sensors that monitor the wearer’s brainwaves. When worn, the device shows a variety of possible artificial female playmates. The ideal partner for the wearer is selected by the Love Checker using a special algorithm backed up by the sensor’s data.

The wearer then gets to go on a virtual reality date with this, supposedly, perfect mate.

This is clearly an early, and more than likely a somewhat crude, step in using VR and sensors to “listen in” on the human mind.

But it’s still interesting to see a developer integrating the two. As virtual reality becomes more common, and the use of brain monitoring sensors become more refined, we will no doubt see this kind of technology appear in all kinds of places.

Instead of synthetic mates, there’s no reason why it couldn’t be used to determine unconscious interest between two human beings, or measure interest, or lack of, in almost anything—yes, including the ever popular peanut butter of sex.

Scientists in the field of neurometrics have long studied the brain’s electrical patterns, using their findings to aid in medical and psychiatric research.

In the meantime, if you are interested in seeing which digital girl is your perfect mate check out the site of the Noha Love Checker’s developer: Dentsu Science Jam (sorry, it’s in Japanese).

M. Christian

M.Christian (they/them) loves nothing better than exploring the intersections of sex and technology—and speculating on the future of both. A highly regarded erotica writer they have six novels,12 collections, 100+ short stories, and 25 anthologies as an editor to their name. Their non-fiction regularly appears in many sites, but they're most proud of being a regular contributor to Future of Sex.

Of their erotic fiction, Tristan Taormino said that “M.Christian is a literary stylist of the highest caliber: smart, funny, frightening, sexy—there's nothing [they] can't write about… and brilliantly.”

Reflecting their unique ability to sympathetically and convincingly write for a range of genders and sexual orientations, their stories have appeared in multiple editions of Best American Erotica, Best Gay Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica, The Mammoth Books of Erotica, and others. Their collection of gay erotic fiction, Dirty Words, was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

While a majority of their stories have been collected into books like Dirty Words, their fondness for combining sex and science fiction is clearly evident in collections that include Rude Mechanicals, Technorotica, Better Than The Real Thing, Skin Effect Effect, Bachelor Machine, and Hard Drive: The Best Sci-Fi Erotica of M.Christian.

As a novelist, M.Christian’s versatility is on full display with Running Dry, The Very Bloody Marys, Brushes, Painted Doll; and the somewhat controversial queer BDSM/horror/thrillers Finger's Breadth, and Me2.

M.Christian has worked on the industry’s production side as an Associate Publisher for Renaissance E Books and as a Publisher for Digital Parchment Services. The latter dedicated to celebrating the works of science-fiction legends such as William Rotsler, Jerome Bixby, Jody Scott, Arthur Byron Cover, Ernest Hogan, and James Van Hise.

Covering topics like BDSM safety, sexual education, senior sexuality concerns, queer and gender issues, plus reviewing a variety of sex tech products, M.Christian’s non-fiction has appeared on sites like Kinkly, Tickle.Life, Sexpert, Queer Majority, Sex for Every Body, and—of course—their ongoing work for Future of Sex.

If there’s anything M.Christian enjoys more than writing, it’s teaching. A featured presenter, sometimes with their friend Ralph Greco Jr, at national sex and BDSM events, they have lectured on kink play (with an emphasis on safety), polyamory, boosting sexual creativity, and erotica writing--for beginners or those wanting to go pro.

M.Christian is a cohost on two popular sex-education podcasts: Love’s Outer Limits with Dr. Amy Marsh and Licking Non-Vanilla with Ralph Greco, Jr.
