This is a couple weeks too late for April Fools, but I'm having a hard time believing this is real. Apparently Spanish mattress manufacturer Durmet has created Smarttress, a sensor-embedded mattress that can tell when people are having sex on it. "Smarttress sends an alert to your mobile phone whenever someone is using your bed in a questionable way," the company writes. As depicted, the Smarttress' "Lover Detection System" (I swear I'm not making this up) creates a disturbingly graphic 3D map of whatever lustful forces are being exerted on your mattress, then sends it to your smartphone:

Apparently Spain is, statistically speaking, a hotbed of extramarital naughtiness, and the mattress was designed to combat this:

The Smarttress, which will reportedly retail for around USD $1,700, is meant to be discreetly ordered online; presumably you sneak this into your home when your S.O. is out of the house, maybe working out at the gym with that really attractive personal trainer. Hopefully in a couple of weeks, you don't get a message like this:

Of course, the Smarttress isn't a perfect solution. If the company wants to stop all home-court adultery they'd have to branch out into other products, creating the Smartcouch, the Smarttable, the Smartkitchencounter, et cetera. The heart wants what the heart wants, folks.

So what do you think? Is this the latest viral marketing gag, or the real deal?
