The Bathroom Reinvented: Universal Design - Part II

[neverlokback]

hey what if i need more than 15 mins?? do i have to go out and put another 0.25 again? that is stupid lol

[singlegoldenorb]

uummm.... they've had those for years in San Francisco. same concept. THAT'S IT.. I'm gonna invent something that's already invent in us on the other side of the country.

[wow85]

A quarter to pay for a piss/shit. This will turn out like the public pya phones, the fee will get raised & no1 will use them b/c u can go into a mcdonalds & do ur business there. No1 saids a word or basivally cares if u go into fast food restaurant to do your business. .25 cents is nice, but that might go up w/ how everything is being charged. I have to admit they are cleaner then the lirr bathrooms & public bathrooms there.

[cyz980313]

why would u dry ur hands with soap on them?

[Hemulen40]

No shit ? ( :

[Yeppr]

Good Fucking Greif..Why don't we sell the public on a super high tech bathroom for $.25 then once they go for it change it to $5..After all it is NYC and charging to take a piss so you don't get ticketed for taking one in the park is our specialty

[tomatinlopez]

why would he be checking the bathrooms

[nellypaekukui]

Interesting.

[NoObIsT2612]

I think its not feasible in the sense that, the user experience just takes too long! Imagine ppl lining up for a quick pee =_='

The advertising should pay for it all, 25c to take a piss is ridiculous, some homeless guy should piss on the side of it. lol

jk, but not really.

[thegateau]

@jiberish001 i think we were just following the european model. when i was in paris in 2005, you had to pay for all public bathrooms (it was probably more than 25cents then too)

[cornjobb]

they had these in seattle for short time and they were mostly used by whores and drug addicts. they were not around for very long.

[nextgenguru]

After fifteen minutes the door opens. You can figure it put by looking at one of the lights next to the door button. It says "when light is on, 3 min. to open door". I assume its a warning for when you're nearly out of time...

[RLWSNOOK410]

What happens after 15 mins???

[xAndeezyx]

@RLWSNOOK410 It implodes, and then cleans all the bloody mess inside for the next user.

Wait? It gives you soapwater without options? It shoudl atleast give you just water to wash the soap at the end, I know alot of of people get itchy if they get soeap on their hands and don't wash it off.

[mitsu92gto]

they have had these in Europe for years... Its about time the US finally catches on.

[BrockJohnsonTV]

Does anyone know a good camera with quality as good as this

[BlankMessageTV]

[Fr4g0n]

I wonder what bystanders were thinking when they say this guy and a cameraman (or woman) come out of the bathroom together. Especially with a camera.

[Geotubest]

and when you're in there and the electricity goes out? Green button doesn't work.

[Rushinator]

@Geotubest It probably unlocks when the power goes out or the door doesn't have the power to stay close and so you can force it open.

[oshashik]

crap

[PruneBoob]

@oshashik I get it!!!

[dudeonthebeach2]

Sometimes people need more than 15 minutes to go to the bathroom. I would hate to be in there and have the door open on me when I wasn't finished yet.

[joaovaldevino]

those buttons to exit the bathroom are  a mess.

[kong19hong]

public bathrooms sometimes need to accommodate a lot more than one person at a time.

if this bathroom needs to be cleaned after every use, how long does that take?

that being said, i saw similar units in sydney last year and i used it without any problems

overall, i think they could have done better using similar buildings to the first one he showed, by introducing more light, and clean and sustainable materials

[rustifer81]

Who would have thought public bathrooms are so interesting...I would pay the $.25

[kenotic0508]

Cool bathroom, too bad you have to pay 25 cents. Its not really a "public" bathroom if you have to pay ...
