A teddy bear to mediate intimate touch?

Dear participant,



Thank you very much for taking the time to participate in this survey today.



We are currently working on a device that helps couples and parents with children living in a long-distance relationship to overcome the lack of intimate touch. The idea for a vibrotactile device came from our own experiences with long-distance relationships.



The way the survey works is as follows: first we will start by describing the main problem we are tackling and then we will ask if this resonate with you. We also prepared a story to provide the context and a few screenshots of the application. We would appreciate your comments on them. Total expected time is not longer than 15 minutes.



We would like to stress that we don't have a finished product yet and our objective is learning from you - not selling or pitching to you.



Your answers will be handled with utmost confidentiality.



Does that sound good?
