Sexual Pleasure is Just a Click Awayfrom Neowin Back Page News
Quote -
A 'sex chip' is being developed by scientists which will be able to stimulate pleasure centres in the brain, Sunday Times reported. The chip would give tiny shocks from implanted electrodes to the brain.
Aresearch survey conducted by Morten Kringelbach, senior fellow atOxford University's department of psychiatry, and reported in theNature Reviews Neuroscience journal, found that the orbitofrontalcortex could be a "new stimulation target" to help people sufferingfrom anhedonia, an inability to experience pleasure from suchactivities. Stimulating this area can produce intense pleasure, headded.
However, Kringelbach's colleague Aziz said the wiringremains a hurdle. He said that the current technology, which requiressurgery to connect a wire from a heart pacemaker into the brain, causesbleeding in some patients and is "intrusive and crude". By 2015, hepredicts, micro-computers in the brain with a range of applicationscould be self-powered and controlled by hand-held transmitters.
Anelectronic machine that generates sexual sensations is already underdevelopment by a North Carolina doctor, Stuart Meloy, who is modifyinga spinal cord stimulator to produce pleasure in women. He calls it theOrgasmatron, a name taken from an orgasm-producing device in the 1973Woody Allen film Sleeper. |
