This week I modeled a penis in cinema 4d and did a try in SparkAR. However, there is a problem in Spark Ar that does not allow me to return the average color of the screen to a value and then put it into the size of the bones in the penis.
Also, I worked on my VR project and thought about different games that can be played in VR and how they can represent sex toys. Here you can see some sketches of different games, and the way I want to turn them into sex toy shapes.
This week, based on some sketches from last week, I chose my AR project and did some sketches for it, the way it works, how it looks, and how people can interact with it. Indeed, It is a packaging that people by scanning, will see a penis jumps out of the box like a Clown box. The size and pattern of that penis can be determined by a user, which draws something on the box, and then see the outcome.
Here is also a flowchart that shows how the AR will work, the steps, and the things I need to do:
This week I started searching for the toys, their meaning, the way we use them, and the things they teach us.
Here is a brief of what I’ve found so far:
How have toys changed over time:
In the medieval ages, children had often been thought of as small adults, who were expected to work in order to produce the goods that the family needed to survive.
In the 19th century, educational purposes were prioritized.
In recent decades, toys are using for:
leisure time
To help mental and physical health
To learn things
A concept of an imaginary and idealized version of the world
Enhance and stimulate creativity
What do toys do?
Children play with toys to discover their identity, help with cognition, learn causes and effects, and explore relationships.
Adults play with toys to strengthen social bonds, have joyful moments, teach, and help in therapy.
And here is the main concept and idea for both VR and AR projects:
“We are in the sexual enlightenment era”
People are getting used to speaking about taboos without embarrassment.
People are getting familiar with sexual orientations.
Authorities are forced to accept these orientations.
I came up with an Idea about sex toys, but with a focus on the word toys, instead of sex. Indeed, I want to work on a project which represents sex toys, but in a playful and entertaining way. It is can be a game that helps to be less embarrassed, have an entertaining time, and be more educated.
“Sex toys” definition:
Object or device used for sexual stimulation or to enhance sexual pleasure.
“Toy” definition
An object for providing entertainment

Adults play with toys to have joyful moments
