Touch-Temperature Taps

The Tempdot Faucet Makes Temperature Tangible

The Tempdot Faucet is the future of hand washing. The futuristic style faucet uses colored lights on the top of the faucet to tell the user what the temperature of the water is.

The Tempdot Faucet’s colored lights range from red through to blue (duh) giving the user an indication of the water temperature. As the water flows through the faucet, the coloured lights will change to match the temperature. I think the coolest part about the Tempdot Faucet is the lack of handles. The colored dots also serve as touch pads, so you can control the water at the touch of your hand!
