New Video Game Controlled By Kissing

unassimilatible writes "Artist Hye Yeon Nam has put her video game where her mouth is — literally — with the creation of a new bowling game that's controlled only by passionate (and awkward) French kissing. The Kiss Controller, as it's called, has two components: a headset that functions as a sensor receiver and a magnet that provides the sensor input, Time reports. Could this be the first example of technology that Slashdotters will be unable to use, as they likely won't be able to get a controller?"

    The next day, my alarm goes off

    And I won in my pants

    This seems like the type of devices they use for speech analysis in relation to tongue position. I wonder if this can be adapted for language coaching, or perhaps for field measurements of languages used in remote areas.
