Are you a Google Glass user who has always wanted to see yourself during sex? OK, so the laws of probability suggest that you aren’t but for the .00001% of people out there who are, then new Glass app Sex With Glass is just what you’ve been looking for.

Sex With Glass founder Sherif Maktabi tells The Guardian that he and his team have a simple mission with their app: “How can we make sex more awesome with Google Glass?”

Their answer, it turns out, is making an app that lets you and your partner see what the other person is seeing during sex simply by saying “OK Glass, it’s time.” You can also stop viewing yourself during sex by saying “OK Glass, pull out.” The app also lets you and your partner record your sexual encounters and issue commands to dim the lights and play Barry White in your bedroom if you have lights and a stereo that are connected to a smart home system.

While it’s questionable whether this app will be as big of a success as its developers hope, Google would probably by much happier to have more people associate its wearable headset with a sex app over, say, Robert Scoble’s infamous shower selfie.
