Exciting Robo-Toilet technology, if you missed it, in Japan (where else?). Each high-tech toilet opens automatically when it senses an approaching humanoid; emits pleasant odors; makes noises to conceil your noises; plays music; and allows you to test your blood pressure and urethra (not sure how that part works). I'm wondering about all the germs on the touch pads, or for that matter, the urethra-tester.

Just think, a couple hundred years ago, we just pooped outside. Now look at us!

I've been looking for a way to check out my urethra without a painful scope. Thanks, Japan!
That is one handy litter box, man.
It clearly represents a quantum leap in potty technology.
I look foreward to the day when super-intelligent toilets can not only sense when I have to go, but actually decide for me. Thanks to our Japanese friends, it looks like I won't have to wait much longer.
I'm kinda' surprised that they haven't somehow incorporated a funny/sexy/anime kitten, or any porn. One step at a time, I guess.
