At next week's @SHaptics conf in Seattle, I'm joining the @HapticsClub podcast crew for a live-on-stage episode looking back at predictions made by their guests about the future of #haptics. To prep, I'm reviewing predictions, will share some thoughts in this thread (1/n).
Tagging @EricVezzoli & @ChickTech in here to do the same, we've got 33 episodes to tear through between us, so buckle up. 1st on my list is @shorlydan on sex tech & wow I got tiny vacuum sucked into listening to this whole thing, fascinating (2/n). podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6L…
