Sex robot pioneer Matt McMullen, CEO of Realbotix, unveiled his Harmony artificial intelligence app and robotic head system to the world in 2017.

His app allows users to synchronise a bespoke AI personality with his robotic head, creating an eerily life-like android companion that talks, learns and satisfies sexual desires.

At present, only female versions of Harmony avatars and robotic heads are available to download and pre-order for around £11,000 ($15,000), depending on customisations.

In 2018, Matt exclusively told Daily Star Online he is aiming to release a male version of Harmony which he is yet to name.

“We’re working on a male version of the robot AI," he said.

“We’ll eventually have a male and a female platform available.”

Matt, whose firm is based in San Diego, California, previously told Daily Star Online of blueprints to create a male sex robot with a bionic penis “better than a vibrator”.

Talking about its functionality, Matt said users will be able to “plug the robot in” allowing it to go “as long as you want”.

Referring to its manhood, Matt said the male sex robots will come in all shapes and sizes – meaning the “sky is the limit”.

Now he hopes to bring these plans to fruition in 2018, alongside the female model of his sex robot, Harmony.

Describing how it will differ from Harmony, he said: “It’s the obvious, the gender; both in the personality and the voice then obviously the male physicality of the robot.

“There’s rebuilding that needs to happen on both fronts to create a male platform.

“We’re working hard on that and that’s one of the next big things we’re looking to get up and running.”

Dr Cathy O'Neil, a Harvard University mathematician, has claimed that sex robots could rending men obsolete.

In an interview with Bloomberg, she said it is '"entirely possible" that women could choose to live "dashing menbots" instead of human males.

Speaking to Daily Star Online, world leading AI researcher Dr David Levy suggested male erotic cyborgs could be more popular than sex toys such as vibrators and dildos.

He said: “I’m sure women will find robots equally appealing as men.

"If women are that interested in getting satisfaction from a vibrator, imagine how the same women will feel having a robot they can put their arms round them and having the robot squeeze them."

In 2017, Matt said he came under fire for “objectifying women” by creating a female sex robot with big breasts andporn star features.

Defending his company, Matt said his customers want to use sex robots – male and female – “not necessarily in a sexual way”.

“We have equal interest in male and female versions of what we’re doing,” he said.

“I feel it’s important to offer both. We get a lot of people gravitating to the fact that we’ve just made a female robot so far.

“People have accused us of objectifying women, but it’s important that people know that this is more than a sex toy.

“We have a lot of female customers interested in buying male robots as companions to talk to and interact with.”
