What is RADR?

RADR (pronounced like “radar”) is a user-friendly, everyday wireless controller for sex machines and Bluetooth toys. Originally designed to control the Open Source Sex Machine (OSSM), RADR has evolved into a versatile controller supporting a wide range of Bluetooth-enabled devices through the Buttplug.io protocol.

Design Philosophy

RADR was created with these principles in mind:
  1. Simplicity — Control your devices without reaching for a phone or computer
  2. Reliability — Direct Bluetooth connection without cloud dependencies
  3. Tactile Feedback — Operate by feel with physical knobs and buttons
  4. Openness — Community-driven development and full source availability
