This makes we want to buy a bunch of Bluetooth stickers and stick them in random objects

Wireless pee

WereCat ,

To stream piss from you into the devive

dutchkimble ,

It’s so they can collect big data on the quality of pee of everyone

To alert staff when customers have eaten the cake and it needs to be replenished

ChadCMulligan ,

It’s got a built in speaker you can pair your phone to if you have an official pee song, mine is CombatCircus, by Talco

Sounds dumb but once you’re synced up it’s hands free and the experience is really relaxing

EvolvedTurtle ,

This is the most realistic sounding explanation and I’m really gullible

So it knows if you’re subscribed to urinal services.

It’s so you can connect to the pee cam in the urinal and broadcast it as you pee

oo1 ,

it’s called taking a “selfpee”

I knew the sink used Bluetooth, but the urinal is new.

According to their website, it is so the toilet can be paired to a Sanela control app which apparently can be used to control certain functional aspects of the urinal, as well as gives quick access to user manuals

Now if only we could find a way to hack this app, so that the toilet plays “It’s Raining Men” every time it flushes… Now that would really be something

plactagonic OP ,

Yeah I know, but is it necessary to give bt connections to everything?

when technology became cheap enough to implement, so they can sell it as features

@MrJameGumb@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah you’re right, they probably could have just used wifi instead.

Bluetooth is a questionable choice unless the company also offered some kind of network appliance that incorporates connections in a cheaper way than all units being networked. Allowing the hub, as a serviceable component, to provide additional monitoring and functionality without requiring each unit to also contain the components. There’s certainly reasons, not outlandish either, but who knows?

MrScottyTay ,

There’ll probably be a little box somewhere in that toilet I assume that controls all of the urinals there that is networked.

It’s a very enterprise thing to do. Ensuring your company gets a contract for long term support and installation.

BT can be used to track people. Maybe they need to know how many people are using it? Or they are stalking men who pee.

Wait till they load it with ‘AI.’

pennomi ,

I think we SHOULD train AI on all our bodily excretions. How else will it learn to understand the human condition?

xavier666 ,

No, please. We just escaped blockchain

unexposedhazard ,

One very cool thing would be a urinal that does internal health checks on your piss and allows you to access that on your phone. But yeah bluetooth is a shit choice for that too.

Fedizen ,

Seeing as they could accomplish basically the same thing with an indicator and a QR code, its crazy a bt chip and antenna were both used in this. My only remaining question: how is it powered?

MTK ,

Finally! It’s always disgusting to touch those public urinal manuals 🤢

I also always end up peeing myself, so I’m glad there is an app to guide me now!

Worx ,

How else are you gonna get the pictures off it?

Iheartcheese ,
@Iheartcheese@lemmy.world avatar

If they wanted pictures of a bunch of cocks why not just put the camera in your moms mouth?

Lost_My_Mind ,

I mean…they could just go on omegle.

Iheartcheese ,
@Iheartcheese@lemmy.world avatar

Not as many cocks there

driving_crooner ,
@driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br avatar

It’s had Bluetooth or just have the Bluetooth symbol on it?

FQQD ,
@FQQD@lemmy.ohaa.xyz avatar

It sells better

shneancy ,

oh god, how long until we see AI powered urinals?

over_clox ,

It’s a subscription based water cooler, obviously.

atro_city ,

There's no tap anywhere to fill the glass.
