Ian Pearson describes the concept of "active skin," which could enhance and expand human sensations.

In the future, a smart “skin” that slots seamlessly over and under your own could give you access to sensations that you can only dream of now. It could sync your nervous system up to the information network, allowing you to record and replay senses, experience orgasms on demand, and switch genders as you wish, according to one futurologist.
