# In-Body Hydration Packs The Shenu: Hydrolemic System Helps the Body Conserve Water By Michael Hines | Published 2012-06-09 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shenu-hydrolemic-system References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2012/06/07/shenu-hydrolemic-system-by-takram/) & [takram](http://www.takram.com/) The Shenu: Hydrolemic System is a conceptual, in-body hydration system designed for 100 years in the future. The system was created by Tokyo-based designers Takram. Takram was challenged to design a [water bottle for the future](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetra), but they instead decided to design a way to help humans [conserve water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upfall-shower). It's a good thing that Takram strayed slightly from the task given to them, because the Shenu: Hydrolemic System is like nothing ever designed before. The system works using several different inserts. The first is a nasal insert that helps to [retain moisture lost during breathing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haler-bliz). The second is a collar that goes around the neck to help lower core heat. Finally, there are inserts designed to recapture waste water lost during urination and defecation. The Shenu system may seem a bit excessive, but it's a thought-provoking design that makes you wonder as to what life will really be like in 100 years. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 67% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **In-body Hydration Systems:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced in-body hydration systems that help humans conserve water. - **Moisture Retaining Nasal Inserts:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create innovative nasal inserts that retain moisture lost during breathing. - **Waste Water Recapturing Inserts:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design inserts that recapture waste water lost during urination and defecation. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Healthcare Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the application of in-body hydration systems in healthcare for patient hydration and conservation of resources. - **Personal Hygiene Products:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop innovative products such as moisture-retaining nasal inserts for personal hygiene and wellness. - **Sustainable Water Management:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create solutions for waste water recapturing in industries focused on sustainable water management and conservation. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bladder-Equipped Hydration Shirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vessel-althetics.md) - [Smart Hydration Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fluidlogic-gpr50.md) - [Personalized Hydration Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/medi-water-ai-20.md) - [Crossbody Hydration Pack Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crossbody-hydration-pack.md) - [Versatile Athletic Hydration Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flexx-hydration-system.md) - [Real-Time Hydration Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/geca.md) - [Wearable Hydration Monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connected-hydration.md) - [Hydration Level Tracking Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waterh.md) - [Festival-Friendly Hydration Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festivalfriendly-hydration-pack.md)
