The Osé, sex tech startup Lora DiCarlo's first device, is on display in Las Vegas this week for CES 2020. The first public unveiling happened at Sunday night's CES Unveiled preshow. Lora DiCarlo also unveiled two new products at the show: the Baci, a "microrobotic pleasure device that simulates the feel and motion of the human lips and tongue," and the Onda, a device designed to replicate the motion of human fingers. Both got CES Honoree Innovation Awards this year.
Sex tech is making its debut on the show floor this year, after some controversy last year involving the Osé prototype. Below is the original product announcement, and stay tuned for more info about sex tech at CES this year.

The Osé uses advanced microrobotics to produce a blended orgasm using movements that are supposed to provide an experience closer to being with a human partner. The device incorporates five pending patents for robotics, biomimicry and engineering feats in an effort to make it more advanced than other sexual health devices.

The company may be best known for earning a CES Innovation award this year, then having that award revoked by the Consumer Technology Association, before receiving it again in May. With all of that behind it, Lora DiCarlo is ready to bring Osé to market. It's on sale now for $290, available to the general public since Dec. 2 for $320. The company says it will begin shipping Osé internationally within four to six weeks.
