fewer people in germany have died from the disease the number of deaths per 1000000 of population is $120.00 neighboring france has seen more than 4 times their death rate meanwhile china and india have reported much lower numbers of fatalities but head of population those figures show germany may have dealt well with the virus so far but infections are also rising again more steeply than deaths and experts are increasingly concerned as they look towards the coming months. we don't know how the inspection situation will develop we have to assume that the number of serious cases will increase and that the number of deaths will also rice going up if that assumption proves correct many more funerals will have to be held under the shadow of covert 19 and german chancellor angela merkel has made an appeal for solidarity during the crisis she told germans it's the way you have the power to slow the spread of the virus the years and. we are not helpless in facing the virus

our actions determine the strength and speed at which it spreads and the imperative thing is for all of us to reduce contact to meet fewer people and if we all stick together we will meet the enormous challenge posed by this virus. until a miracle they're asking people to be responsible ok i'm joined now by reporter nicole risen a co you've been following the situation germany had been doing relatively well in the crisis yet now the numbers are soaring why oh basically we've also seen that the numbers are slowly going up already since 2 dive effect then it was 70800 cases a day now we're almost facing 15000 that's a lot to take in and they also say the reason why i'm going to america has been time and again reminding people to stick to the rules and that they have the power to actually influence that but these numbers pretty much reflect that they didn't

take the chance you know probably many germans are coming out of a rather relaxed summer they were able to travel again after a very hard time the way able to gather again and they were able to party again to go to restaurants etc but now we are reaching autumn and things are pretty much happening inside which is perfect for the virus to spread we have learned already and this is happening as they have this rather relaxed attitude and this is why the numbers probably are going up and on top of that we have also have regions in germany that decide on domestic travel bans that are being overturned within days or here in berlin we had a curfew for bars and restaurants which then salsa makes them choose already and this is not setting a really good example for people to you know stick to rules and be confident about what they're doing or like avoiding a fatigue that probably each one of us has suffered at some point during this very wrong crisis it's been a flashpoint between the federal and state power here in germany but it's also

across borders it's now the same situation in other countries in europe yes because people are in the same situation i mean we have a new hot spot across europe almost every day one day it's the czech republic we saw front struggling against spain still one of the most affected countries they just reach 1000000 infections this. week the 1st western country in europe that has that since the phonetics started it and they're looking into declaring the state of emergency again maybe to morrow they want to have a cabinet meeting that essential as the prime minister already said that they are probably looking at triple the number of cases like that they're facing officially so he's already pointing at the hidden figures and so regions want to make sure that they have the legal powers to implement new restrictions and there are parts of the country let's remember spain had one of the toughest lockdowns in europe nobody was really able to move for months that might not happen again but that

trying to avoid it by maybe to creating that state of emergency tomorrow and let's face it i think pretty many countries in europe in the same situation they're trying to avoid national harsh lockdowns and trying to find a solution in between to not have to go back really to spring again when when autumn nichelle thanks so much will have all the countries in your bill jim is among the hardest hit by the pandemic with the highest number of kovi done thing infections per capita the region of lonia already has a not time curfew but its hospitals are still struggling to cope and stuffy they'll soon face the hottest of choices. the briefing between shifts at this hospital in charlotte was and by lonia staff are already preparing for the worst. is it the kind of modern new long i'm already afraid of the moment we reach our limits and have to choose whom we take in and who gets to be treated well should it

where i come from we have to fight for a free press and was born and raised in a new town of the painter she protests one to the shadow and if you newspapers with official information as attorneys you have work on the streets of many characters and their problems are the same forward to social inequality a lack of the freedom of the press. corruption we can afford to stay silent when it comes to the fans of the humans and see them right through fools who have decided to put their trust in us. is too many parents and i weren't down with. the boy. virtual reality could revolutionize the sex industry what's already

possible what is being developed and how might these changes affect us digital technology and sex i want topic on shift today. let's be honest despite my personal and foozie as i'm for be our technology in general i have not taken b r pornography very seriously ups are not for me it is a niche market for a very special clientele in japan however the concept has really taken off even special stores here where you can have completely new experiences with the our glasses is there perhaps more to the idea after all i took a look at one of these stores in tokyo. asking about in tokyo the district is a hop of manga on the main computer games alex rawlings and the pornography the company soft on demand alone operates 70 special b r 6 stores in japan it's one of the largest produce. upon order for films in asia.

here you can see employees faces to keep things discreet i asked to book a one hour of the hour packets it costs almost 1000 yen about a year old all dodged up in the cities have venues like this. can be rented for up to 3 hours there are 3 different options reclining chair reclining mats all flat i chose reclining match. my booth was on the 2nd floor i'm one meter 93 tall and felt pretty claustrophobic on the way up. in the booth i found the our glasses handkerchiefs and telephone slippers and countless options it was a little bit confusing to be honest. luckily a lot of people you don't know that either because 50 percent of people come here for in us so they have a special service for that i would call for help. the stuff help me set up and

stop of ya feel the films i shot from a subjective camera angle so depending on where the u.s. seated on lying down you will be watching a different film with a corresponding setting. you can see your own virtual body so this video here wouldn't have made much sense if i had been sitting upright. the sex industry would not be going to those technological length if we didn't expect to profit illegal porn streaming and private providers have resulted in considerable losses in recent years gamble only time will tell whether the op one really does offer a way out of the crisis more and more videos are becoming available online but what's the attraction. no mortal in tokyo is one of japan's leading produces.

when you watch a p.r. on a t.v. or a p.c. screen it's usually from a bird's eye view of the real b.r. emphasizes the experience much more. of a. customer feels as if he could really touch the girl that he has real eye contact or that he can feel her breath next to his ear. so the media it's a completely different view or perspective to a standard movie that. i found the unusual perspective unsettling. first impression it's really very detailed a little bit weird to watch to be honest because the woman in that clip i just saw she appears shoot this distortion is linked to the distance between our peoples which is different for every person the images are set to a standard this if this doesn't correspond to the eyes of the person wearing the glasses the proportions will be distorted. the

filmmakers of soft on him on produce that he obviously knows in this studio everything here is why. this ensures that the background isn't distracting and allows the producers to better direct of us focus. on what is the strength of b.r. is that it enables different forms of interaction was taken the could allows you to get to a place you couldn't get to before so into action is the magic word this combination of technology and emotion is something that can be found most of all in japan according to not least the high the british author and podcast focuses on ethical issues related to digital technologies. amazing innovation and. if you think. a lot of people in a lot of places are very expressive of that affection for technology and you may end up going in a great relationship with ok i kind of love my smartphone too but that's as far as

it goes some of the observations already enable you to build your dream partner does that really create deeper connections. being able to configure a virtual partner like in a computer game and having custom made avatars thanks to computer generated images this is a future v.a.r. producer yasha moto finds promising. to do and will be possible to design individual body parts such as breasts waist or hips to create your ideal woman with the help of c.g.i. you have a sex therapist dr michelle paid to refinance this technology problematic he says even normal porn films already create unrealistic expectations in his patients. or you're somebody. and now we're reaching a new level here the user can actually select his or her ideal partners body.

but the consequence of this would be that any real life partner would end up being compared to this fantasy product. does it constitute missing lots. natalie no high also worries about consequences this comparison can have she researches ethical issues surrounding digital technologies. well. being human being and believes about it's actually quite a complex issue if you end up real beings humans trying to emulate. themselves in order to look more like that's the reality count models real people trying to look more like virtual of a tot's sounds pretty dubious to me they are already reports about people having plastic surgery for that reason cutting edge technology and the sex industry seem a good match for not a few has long been a driver for technological advancements but a passion boss the author of the erotic engine is certain that without demography the internet would not have grown so quickly not convinced well you know some

examples online payment systems without paper and size payment would be a simple and secure as it is today online streaming without with streaming software developed for pornography sites media platforms will struggle to deliver news clips online advertising without advertising from sec size many free internet services wouldn't exist and now we are even in the development of sex toys experiments are being made but virtual reality and for once the products on offer not merely targeted at unmet we are what. this exclamation of surprise is from an ad by dutch sex toy manufacturer the company offers a vibrator that can be linked to v.r. glasses by an apple special vibrations which correspond to what's happening in the film or transmitted by the gadget. of course there are similar products for men

to for example virtual made a device for men that works with. they are and real time sensors and promises a realistic erotic experience. such devices can also be linked using apps and controlled remotely by someone's partner possibility that some couples find appealing. but i think nothing that enables us to relate more fully with someone else especially when so many of us are at distance well for instance in a pandemic if you look in different cities and it's going. to express your desire for the other partner and a different way and so i think it is designed to create a connection in a way that people want and that's one. sense of the cover of night and pandemic began digital adult entertainment services have become more popular well direct physical contact is rather difficult at the moment especially for singles the us paul website caught up as reza says up to 25 percent more hits on its site this

year many people really miss physical contact that's why resource is currently being conducted about how to make virtual experiences even better one promising possibility special suits that simulate touch and warmth. and technology when paired with yassin can be really powerful because it gives us physical cues it's a physical sensation that he trusts to digital touch and that's going to be much more pleasant for a much more real. and just having some. visual. auditory. soft on demand in tokyo is currently working on integrating additional sensations the goal is to eventually include all of our senses in the v.r.t. experience. what would you know at the moment we're testing new technologies to make the v.o.r. experience even better. for example we are working on a technology for smells like

a woman's mouth to protect. now feel taste prospects seem busying already offers the possibility to slip into other characters or other bodies or for example to playfully change sex if we are not a mess. the sense of anonymity can give us a great feeling of freedom to disclose and to be honest and. able to express things that we might otherwise and so i think given the actual reality office that possibility it is very possible that we can be more intimate that could technology really help us to better understand our own sexuality and so to gain a better understanding of others in real relationships it's an interesting thought if you like. my community one day all of us will not only want to have sex in our bedrooms but in the dream worlds that are most exciting for us on that one instance that was just that would be one way i could see virtual reality providing exciting

possibilities for users in everyday life. not just as pornography but for couples as well documented targets young star income funds. via our sector is expecting the market to grow to 13 and a half 1000000000 euros by 2022 and this includes sex products after all many people enjoy exploring new options we are very adaptive as humans and we can learn to find things as exciting and erotic and normal given the amount of time to get used to it so yeah i think a lot of us will end up expanding our sexual records in income that remains to be seen with quite a way of really natural looking and i and i think a certain point we might end up singing but in the other direction and once in real physical human contact with human beings. what do you think what do you try adrià sex to technology and feelings go together share your opinions with us on facebook
