During our cooperation with clients, we discovered an interesting phenomenon: many B2B clients believe that product features are static.
The truth is, at LUXORA, we are constantly pushing boundaries.
And the reason we developed our revolutionary 3rd-generation silent motor wasn’t a corporate mandate—it was a user’s plea for dignity.
We believe innovation starts with empathy.
This is the story of how one email transformed our engineering philosophy from “reducing noise” to “protecting privacy.”
This case study illustrates our R&D culture. For a comprehensive guide to our technological innovations, read our Ultimate B2B Guide to Sex Toy Innovation.
The Beginning of the Story: An Email from a User
The story originated from a complaint email forwarded by one of our distributors.
The content was a wake-up call:
“I’m Sarah. I bought your high-end vibrator three weeks ago. I really like everything about it – except for one major problem. The motor makes too much noise.
My roommates have started making fun of it.
Every time I use it, I can hear them whispering and giggling through the wall… Last night, one of my roommates knocked on the door and asked if everything was okay inside.
At that moment, I really wanted to hide under the floor.
This has affected my daily life, and to be honest, it has also affected my mental health.”
This email was a turning point.
Previously, we prioritized battery life and power.
Sarah’s email taught us that noise is not just about comfort; it is about the psychological safety users need in their personal space.
The R&D Journey: From “Vibration Reduction” to “Sound Cancellation”
Redefining the problem from “reduce noise” to “protect privacy” sparked a complete overhaul of our R&D process.
Our innovation journey was an iterative cycle, driven directly by Sarah’s feedback.
First-Generation Solution: Dampening
We started with a basic silicone sleeve to dampen vibrations.
It was logical, but the results were underwhelming, barely affecting the high-frequency whirring Sarah described.
Second-Generation Solution: Isolation
Recognizing that simple dampening was insufficient, we focused on internal architecture.
We engineered strategic air gaps and lined compartments with acoustic foam to trap sound waves.
This was an improvement, but still not the “library-quiet” experience users needed.
Third-Generation Breakthrough: Elimination
The real breakthrough came when we decided to eliminate noise at its source.
This led to a complete redesign of the motor’s core, incorporating magnetic levitation (Maglev) principles.
By using opposing magnetic fields to suspend the motor’s rotor, we eliminated the physical contact points that generate most operational noise.
The result was a motor that operated with unprecedented smoothness and quietness—safely below 40 decibels (dB), which is comparable to a quiet library according to the Yale University EHS Decibel Chart.

Learning from Users, Constantly Evolving
At Luxora, we operate on the principle that every user interaction—a rave review, a support ticket, a product return—contains invaluable data.
Our R&D pipeline isn’t driven by chasing competitors; it’s driven by real people.
We systematically aggregate all customer feedback into a centralized database, where product managers and engineers translate patterns into formal “Innovation Mandates.”
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: How much quieter is the third-generation silent technology compared to the previous one?
A1: Our third-generation silent motor technology reduces operational noise by over 60% compared to the second generation.
It operates at a level under 40 decibels (dB)—comparable to a quiet library.
This is a significant leap from our previous technology (55 dB), directly addressing the core user need for discretion.
Q2: Will this technology be applied to all product lines?
A2: Currently, our third-generation silent technology is a premium feature integrated into our high-end product lines to provide our B2B partners with a distinct competitive advantage.
We are continuously exploring opportunities to incorporate this technology into a wider range of products.
Q3: If my brand has higher requirements for silence, can it be customized?
A3: Absolutely. We pride ourselves on our B2B partnership model.
If your brand has specific acoustic requirements, our R&D team is ready to collaborate with you to develop bespoke solutions that meet your unique demands.
