Everybody can be buzzed with this wearable vibrator for men that helps keep an erection up while stimulating their partner.
Designed by UK sex tech company MysteryVibe, the adult toy, called ‘Tenuto 2’, is envisioned as an affordable, non-prescription alternative to treatments for erectile dysfunction like sildenafil (also known as Viagra). Erectile dysfunction can be caused by a multitude of reasons, including nerve damage from a back injury, heart problems, colon or rectal cancer, or as a side effect of prostate surgery.
Worn over the penis, Tenuto 2 increases blood flow in the area with four motors that eject localized vibrations to boost circulation. Two wings at the base support the penis to keep the blood moving in this zone.
Notably, the device isn’t just for men with erectile dysfunction. It’s also a two-way toy that simultaneously reaches male and female erogenous zones, such as one partner’s perineum—the area between the anus and the scrotum—and the other’s clitoris.
MysteryVibe’s CEO Soumyadip Rakshit tells Dezeen that while the usual cock rings might help with erectile dysfunction, they’re typically rigid and hamper ejaculation. In contrast, the company’s version has an adaptable, stretchable design that is said to be able to accommodate 90% of penis sizes and testicles.
