TOTO sees the residential bathroom as the perfect place to support wellness and the TOTO Wellness Toilet uses cutting-edge sensing technologies, artificial intelligence and IoT to track and analyze mental and physical status. Debuting at Digital CES 2021, the smart toilet shares a simple way for people to check in on their wellness. As TOTO describes, "toilets and people have two unique touchpoints that cannot be found elsewhere – the skin and human waste."
Unlike mindfully needing to put on a wearable, the Wellness Toilet needs no additional actions, so that people can check in on their current health and get insights via a smartphone app.
The TOTO Wellness Toilet is part of the company's vision for supporting the New Normal Way of Life.
