So this $4,000 dollar toilet drives itself across your home and comes to you when you need it. It's an autonomous robot toilet built by a Chinese company for people with limited mobility from age, injury, or disability. You summon it with a remote or voice command and it navigates to you on its own. It uses the same tech as advanced robot vacuums, LiDAR, ultrasonic sensors, and cliff detection times to steer around obstacles and stairs. Once you're finished, a built-in bidet and warm air dryer clean you while UV light kills bacteria and a charcoal filter handles odor. Then it drives back to its dock, recharges, refills and grinds its waste into your home's plumbing. But here's the interesting part, the dock has no drainage itself. An extending arm pumps the waste into a regular toilet instead. This won't replace caregivers, but it removes one of the hardest parts of their job. Global populations are aging fast and the bathroom is one of the last places technology hasn't reached.
