Video Sync with Restim

Restim has built-in support for funscripts and several video players. See Connecting Restim to video player.

Connecting external applications to Restim

Restim can be controlled from third-party applications.

  1. Buttplug. Synchronize video with ScriptPlayer or FapTap.net. Synchronize games with estim with any buttplug-compatible game. Refer to the Buttplug setup instructions.

  2. Multifunplayer (windows only). Synchronize video with MultiFunPlayer. Useful if you want to sync multiple toys at the same time. Refer to MultiFunPlayer setup instructions.

  3. Direct UDP connection. For use with ToySerialController for usage in VAM (Virt-A-Mate). See Post on milovana for troubleshooting.

Basics

For new users feeling lost.

Stim theory

For nerds like me.

  • Glossary Just to make sure we're on the same page.
  • Nerve activation how does electricity activate nerves? What is the relationship between signal intensity, pulse width (or carrier frequency) and amplitude? Should we use monophasic or biphasic pulses? How do we bias the signal towards targeting a specific nerve type?
  • Pulse rate We generated an action-potential, great! How often should the stimulus be repeated?
  • Skin resistance How high is skin resistance? It turns out the answer depends on many factors.
  • Threephase effects What is threephase? What about N-phase?
  • Volume ramp When turning up the power there are onset effects, how should these be handled?
  • E-stim safety Highly technical information on damage mechanisms.
  • Dorsal nerve Some electrode placements generate a sharp pain that's not near the stimulating electrodes, why is that?
  • Sticky pads Some data on sticky pad construction.

TODO: electrode placement.

Edging sensors

Ongoing research into edging algorithms.

  • sensors Overview of various biofeedback sensors.
  • literature What can we learn from literature about sensor readings?
  • sensor data Data I collected with cheap sensors.

Software

For people interested in the math behind signal generation.

  • Software basics The basic concepts about signal generation and calibration.
  • Software algos Different versions of the Restim signal generation algorithm.
