We ordered the organic vibrator form from Sculpteo. They offer material which can be used for food – so it’s very safe.

All you need for assembly is the body interaction motion controlled vibrator development board and two M3 screws (about 6mm long).
The video explains how-to assemble the Arduino compatible body interaction vibrator board and the form.
The body interaction development board includes everything to start: the board, the LiPo battery and a vibration motor. Put it together in a few minutes. All you need now is a 3d printed case.
We give away a limited number of body interaction development boards for free. Please send a short description of your project with your email, mail address (and website) to info@bodyinteraction.com. Only available outside the US due to patent trolls. Please send us a photo or video when the project is finished. Your data are not given to anyone else and will be deleted on request.

In the next post we show you how to assemble a 3d printed case and the body interaction development board.
Chain of Ball Vibrator design with cap
The new design catches the “chain of balls” design theme used in some sex toys. It was constructed in Tinkercad and it is really simple to do it on your own. This how-to video explains the construction in detail.
The design is composed from several spheres
Try it on your own in Tinkercad. Just grab a sphere, make a copy, resize the copy, make a copy again and repeat this until you have a chain of spheres. Now select all sphere and use the “align” tool. That’s it.
The tricky part is the screw cap. This is needed to enclose the body interaction vibrator development board.

There is new version of the vibrator ring. The height is smaller than in the original version. As there must be enough space for the vibrator development board, the LiPo battery and the vibration motor the case is larger in height. Board and LiPo are now beside one another. The new case is printed with the daVinci 1.0 3d printer with yellow ABS.
Modify and create your own with Tinkercad. Or download from Thingiverse.
Dimensions: 78x48x10mm
Improved version! Open with Tinkercad. Download from Thingiverse.
Most cases for the body interaction vibration development boards so far had a “massage wand” style. This one is in form of a ring. Inside the ring is enough space for the vibration motor, pcb and LiPo. Work in progress! https://tinkercad.com/things/fcRz5yzJAXR http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:826715
As alternative to the 3d printed form a flexible form made with silicone could improve the handling of the body interaction board (BI1) for certain applications. The vibration is more comfortable and less noisy compared to other cases. If you want to do it on your own follow this how-to.

Some adult toys are made of silicone or at least are coated with silicone. Silicone cases are easy to clean.
We have constructed a 3D printed form where we will fill in the silicone. The form comes in two parts that have to be fixed to one another by tinkering wire. In addition the board has to be hooked to the form. For this we use a USB connector which is plugged in the USB port of the board. Then the USB connector is fastened to the form.

Use a silicone which will become solid after moulding. This property of silicone is indicated by the shore A value. Silcone with a low value is flexible. We use silicone with shore A 43.

This is new case for the body interaction 1 (BI) – the aim is to provide a case which can be printed on low cost 3d printer. The most tricky part is the cap and its threads
The development of the encasement for the body interaction takes a lot of time although we use 3d print services. The 3d print services need one to four weeks until delivery. The quality of the cases are good, but if you wait so long for the next iteration of the design, it can’t be called rapid prototyping. Now we bought…
