The smart shower device has a variety of features including shutting off water when it reaches the right temperature, conservation tracking, multi-alert time notifications encouraging you to take shorter showers, [advanced sensors and water flow control](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivint-water-sensor). Controlled by Bluetooth, the device connects to a specialized smartphone application. The device can also connect to 90% of existing showers. It's installed in between the water inlet pipe and [water valve](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aqara-smart-valve-controller-t1) (between the shower head and wall). Eva is only in the early stages and consists of a working prototype. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Smart Shower Devices:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced sensors and water flow control features for smart shower devices to enhance water conservation and user experience. - **Water Conservation Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create new technologies and systems that quantify and track water consumption in various household activities to promote water conservation and reduce waste. - **Connectivity in Home Appliances:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate Bluetooth and smartphone applications into household devices to enable remote control and monitoring, providing increased convenience and efficiency. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Smart Home Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce water-saving and connectivity features in smart home technology products to enhance sustainability and user experience. - **Water Management Solutions:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced tracking and quantification technologies for water management solutions to help individuals and businesses monitor and conserve water resources effectively. - **Iot Enabled Plumbing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combine Internet of Things (IoT) and plumbing technologies to create intelligent plumbing systems that optimize water usage, detect leaks, and promote water efficiency. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fully Integrated Smart Showers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/power-shower-head.md) - [WiFi-Enabled Circular Showers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circular-shower.md) - [Water-Saving Bathroom Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bergvattnet.md) - [In-Shower Water Meters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-bergvattnet.md) - [Accessible Shower Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/accessible-showers.md) - [Temperature-Displaying Shower Heads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invispace.md) - [Closed-Loop Bathing Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upfall-shower.md) - [Instantaneous Hot Water Showers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heau-shower.md) - [Self-Powered Shower Heads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ung-water-enhancer.md)
