The Vape-o-Gotchi is a striking device that fuses vaping with a virtual pet concept. It requires users to vape regularly to keep the pet alive, flipping the original Tamagotchi idea on its head, which aimed to help users quit nicotine. Created by Rebecca Xun and Lucia Camacho at New York University's Stupid Hackathon, the device features a darkly humorous twist, appealing to the competition's goals to create something intentionally silly. Despite its controversial premise, the creators have no intentions of commercializing the gadget.
The Vape-o-Gotchi is a standard Elf Bar e-cigarette connected to custom electronics that detects whether or not the vape is being used.
Creators Rebecca Xun and Lucia Camacho initially wanted the device to help people quit nicotine but ended up creating a dark, humorous version.
