Remember how Bill Gates put out a $100,000 call for a better, high tech condom? We haven't had anything that will replace what we have today just yet, but Firaz Peer and Andrew Quitmeyer of Georgia Tech may have a potential solution.

The only caveat: Do you mind putting electrodes on your manparts? The prototype contraption you see in the video is called the Electric Eel, and you slip on a condom laced with electrodes which would sensually shock your joystick. Apparently it is quite pleasant. We guess the only barrier is mass acceptance of the product, in both men and women.



The pair have managed to work up one prototype by wiring electrodes through an existing, unrolled condom. Wearable tech for your man junk? What do you think? [Hack a Day]
