Well with a number of things going on including moving house, the project got a bit left behind but its been unpacked and tested and it works!! Well the random number bit works very well, the biofeedback works but there are a few tweaks to be made with the levels and gain of the amp. I am also thinking of making it a bit more “intelligent” with some memory of what you have liked in the past “Sasi” style.
On a more techy note, The whole thing seriously needs repackaged and the code fully rewritten in C on something more AVR-ey and less PIC-ey. The electronics need to be polished up a bit and a few of the more expensive components replaced with cheaper alternatives (things link the POL converter and DC-DC could be combined and the LCD replaces with some LEDs (those displays are £15 a piece!!)
Anyhoo its back on the bench (well the box is open, the bench is not quite unpacked yet) and more will be done now I have a tester who thus far is rather delighted with the results. I have also submitted it to LoveHoney’s “Design a Sex toy” comp which should give someone in their office an interesting read.

nice one Peter. How long has that project been going on for? It seems a while.
Do you have any photos of it? I’m trying to picture it in my mind. I’m also rather curious about what improvements the tester is suggesting.

I found the photos of the prototype in an older post. Has it changed or still mostly the same gizmo?

Its still the same more or less so it needs a serious bit of redesign. the main additions suggested are better mode selection and control more sensor driven behaviour (GPS etc..)
