3 days agoVivoo's toilet computer keeps an eye on your hydration
Vivoo introduced a Smart Toilet that optically measures urine specific gravity for hydration and a Hygenic FlowPad menstrual pad that monitors hormones like FSH.
The actual name is the Withings U-Scan, a $380 at-home urinalysis test with a removable cartridge that either measures your nutritional biomarkers or the likelihood of developing kidney stones. Somehow, for legitimate work purposes, I was going to spend the next several weeks measuring my pee. Because my pee was going to provide crucial data about my ketone, vitamin C, hydration, and "bioacidity" levels, whatever the hell that meant. Armed with this data, I could theoretically further optimize my diet and... I don't know. Be healthier?
