Sex Robots May Be Here Sooner Than You Think

Whether you are lonely, deprived of sex, or seeking a companion without the human flaws, you’ve probably thought about sex robots.

Please note: I will be referring to them as “Sex Robots” because this is their mainstream name, but in reality, most of us (especially the doll community) know that they won’t just be for sex, but also for love, companionship, and so much more. Love Robot is technically a better name.

Movies like Ex Machina, and video games such as Detroit: Become Human that feature human-like androids have only fueled many of our desires for sex robots and robot companions. We all know sex robots will come out eventually but how long will it take?

Initially, upon seeing the slow progress in sex dolls, I assumed it would take over 10 years for sex robots to finally arrive. It’s not easy to make a fully functioning robot with AI technology. This would require a lot of time, money, and research in a risque field that many investors would be hesitant to invest in. 10 years seemed like a conservative guess, but then I realized technology is advancing faster than many people expected. To explain, let me showcase 3 innovative companies in the race towards sex robots.

DS Doll Robotics

In my opinion, I believe DS Doll Robotics will be the first company to release a fully-functional sex robot. You may have heard of DS Doll before. They are a silicone sex doll manufacturer with over 10 years of experience. In 2018, they revealed their AI/Robotic Head prototype which could talk, make facial expressions, and look around. This was the first step towards sex robots.

Update: Due to DS Doll Robotics setting their Twitter account to private, the videos below are unfortunately no longer viewable. You can find DS Doll Robotics videos in this post instead: DS Doll Robotics Sex Robot Progress in 2021 Update

Just 1 year later in 2019, they are already showcasing advancements their robotic body design. They are one of the only sex doll/robot companies working on not only an AI head, but a robotic body too. Seeing how quickly this passionate company advanced their sex robot prototype in under 1 year told me that it truly will not take 10 years for sex robots to arrive. If this rapid progress continues, we may have sex robots is just 5 years.

Be sure to follow DS Doll Robotics here. I truly believe they will be the first company to release true, life-like sex robots.

Update: Although it has been 1 year since their walking animation video, it seems they have not made any further progress in the walking. Due to the skinny human-like legs and feet of the robot, it is extremely difficult to balance a human-like robot without falling. This appears to be the biggest challenge for DS Doll Robotics. Therefore, they have shifted their attention to facial animations and upper body movements instead.

RealDoll

If you have never heard of DS Doll Robotics, you may have heard of RealDoll by Abyss Creations and their Harmony sex robot, which was showcased in several articles, videos, and documentaries. RealDoll is a premium sex doll manufacturer based in the USA that has been working on a sophisticated AI robotic head. Their doll, Harmony, is able to respond to questions, look around, and even moan with perfect lip syncing and realistic eye movement.

Fast forward one year, RealDoll now has many heads in their RealDoll X (AI) line, and at AVN 2020, they revealed a robot that can move her arms and torso, and can moan. Although not perfect, the movements looks surprisingly smooth and fluid for an early prototype. The gradual movement makes her look more realistic than the DS Doll Robotics’ counterpart. It will certainly take a few more years to perfect.

AI Tech

Lastly, let’s talk about AI Tech, also known as Shenzhen All Intelligent Robot Technology. They are most known for their Emma sex doll, essentially a “cheaper” version of RealDoll’s AI head. They have many different heads to choose from, but at the moment, there is only an AI head, with probably no plans on a robot body. Their AI is fairly primitive at the moment, but unlike RealDoll, the AI Tech head has a mic and speakers, so you can talk to her and she will respond. The main drawback seems to be limited conversational lines that repeat, the AI mishearing what you said, and an inability to know when sex is happening- meaning she might say random things during sex that ruin the mood. Hopefully, their software improves in the future because AI Tech currently offers the most affordable sex robot in the marketplace.

In Conclusion

Sex Robots will be here sooner than most people think. Technology is advancing at exponential rates in ways we never thought possible. In just 1-2 years, DS Doll Robotics has created a sex robot with an AI head and robotic body that, as of August 2019, can move its arms, walk (still in development), and grab objects with its hands. This rapid advancement in technology leads me to believe sex robots will be available in about 5 years, but they probably won’t be perfected until 10 years. They certainly will not replace humans since they will be fairly primitive and unnatural in movement and AI in the early stages, but it is no longer a pipe dream. They’re coming, you will be too.

    We WILL get there eventually. But what will happen to human relationships when you can have a companion who is indistinguishable from a real person but has the exact face and body you want (or maybe can even morph its appearance to suit your mood), and is always ready and willing to do whatever activity you want. Who never disagrees with you, and is your biggest fan. How can a human compete?

      Hi Rich,
      I wrote this post a while back and continued watching the sex robot progress. Unfortunately, what you described may take much longer than I originally predicted. Possibly not for another 50+ years. Progress has been extremely slow and many companies have already given up. Without heavy investments, a sex robot that is indistinguishable from a human (or can even walk like a human) is in the far distant future. The biggest obstacles are technological limitations (including AI), money, public opposition, and government regulation. At this point, I feel like the only companies that can pull it off are Boston Dynamics, Elon Musk/Tesla, or maybe RealDoll (in the far future). DS Doll Robotics has pretty much given up and settled with an animatronics history museum. Meanwhile, AI-Tech has made no progress. With a global recession coming as well, the future of sex robots isn’t looking great right now.

        Well I believe what you say to an extent. 5 to 10 years is still a reasonable time frame. I mean look at the robot Ameca. Which was revealed in 2021 and the tesla bot. It’s best just to give it time.
        Heck Ameca can use GPT3 now and Googles LAMBDA had an engineer believing that it was sentient lol!

    Hello,
    By searching for MissDoll on the web, the site is under construction. 🙁
    But I found: https://www.smartdollworld.com
    Never heard of this brand, which offers AI Dolls and with an optional annual subscription to change the lyrics !!!
    Is it a reseller? And who doesn’t mention the brands?
    suspect!
    Cited only 5 times in the posts of TDF members. And no section dedicated to this “brand”!
    Your opinion?

    I am discovering your site for the first time, congratulations, rich in information and news!

      Hi saindoux,
      This post is a bit outdated. I will update it in the future. MissDoll seems to have disappeared so they are not a good example anymore. The brand in that website is AI-Tech, and have a section on TDF with the name “Shenzhen All Intelligent Robot Technology.” They are known for the Emma sex robot. From what I’ve seen it is quite primitive and not very good, like a cheap version of a RealDollX. There is at least one person on TDF that ordered and reviewed one in that forum section. Hope that helps.

    Muy acertado en tus predicciones, vienen pronto en cosa de 4 años, aunque esa primera generación serán caros y rudimentarios, el hacha habrá finalmente caído y cuando las demás empresas tecnológicas Amazon, Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi, Hyundai, Toyota, Honda paquidérmicas y lentas en su accionar pero gigantes y poderosas con muchos recursos bajo la manga observen al mercado correr tras los pioneros de EX Doll y DS Dolls rápidamente se apresurarán a mover el trasero y a diseñar sus propios modelos. En ese momento la rueda comenzará a girar cada vez más y más rápido y conforme más plata, cerebros, contratistas y tecnologías se apliquen a lo mismo veremos una explosión de androides para 2030 con todo tipo de lo que yo llamaría “Adaptaciones” animales para aumentar las capacidades de los androides, haciendo una equivalencia a lo que son las Aplicaciones para los smartphones hoy
