The idea is to allow couples separated by distance to remotely stimulate each other - and the garments have quickly gained worldwide attention.
"After the laughter had stopped, we knew it was going to be an awesome project," Snepo owner and director Ben Moir in a video posted online about the product said.
A team of three engineers and a number of fashion designers have been working on the undies in Sydney since January.
They were developed for condom maker Durex Australia and the company has posted a video online showing an Australian couple trying them, while talking over a Skype-type service.
Billie Whitehouse, an Australian fashion designer who worked on the project insists the garments are comfortable, despite the electronic gadgets inside.

But a source close to the project said they were an entirely viable product for the mass market.
