The job of a masseur or masseuse is simply too boring and tiring. So, we need something to motivate them. What about they can get to enjoy playing a video game, while carrying out their duties, giving massage to the clients? And the clients will also get to enjoy good massage too.
This is certainly a cool idea, that is how the Massage Me jacket is being proposed. The Massage Me Jacket is having numerous sensors built into it. And these sensors convert massaging actions into control signals for a video game console.
The jacket will work in place of normal game controller, which should work with many off-the-shelf games. For clients who like intensive pressure for their massage, you’ll certainly go for a fighting game. For clients who want the masseurs or masseuses to step on their backs, surely, they will choose a dancing game, something like Dance Dance Revolution would fit best.

Lovely post!
When making Massage me we weren’t thinking about the bored masseur but more about the “innocent by-stander”, the person who is not playing, who is bored stupid of watching the other person play. But the idea of the bored masseur is also lovely!
