Japan is a strange country because technological innovations in this country are often different from other countries. Last year, for example, a human washing machine was offered for those who are too lazy to bathe manually. This year, a toilet with a system that analyzes feces was launched to track the user's health level.
The Neorest toilet was developed by the Toto company and it scans feces using LED sensors. It will measure the shape, volume and color of feces before classifying it into 3 different categories. The information will then be sent to a smartphone and the application will provide dietary recommendations based on the analysis of feces. For example, it will recommend eating more vegetables and fiber.
With this, users will be able to actively track their health through feces that are usually thrown away. This is not the first waste material scanning technology to enter the market. Last year, Kohler launched the Dekoda toilet bowl camera that will analyze not only feces but also urine to track the user's health.
