This is a device for treating urinary incontinence developed for the Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center on Accessible Medical Instrumentation. It was designed by Arin Ellingson, Marty Grasse, Jon Sass, Ben Schoepke, and David Schurter, undergraduates in biomedical engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Our advisor was Mitch Tyler.

The alarms are customizable (can select any combination of visual, audible, or vibrate). And there is a safety switch that must be engaged before you can void.

The thigh strap is there since our valve is so bulky but that likely wouldn't be required in future prototype.

Is this for real? or a joke?

A 50p catheter valve emptied at 2-3hr intervals or when the feeling the need to void if able,is a far cheaper,disposable option.Obviously it would be minatureised for the actual market but would many people fancy the idea of having a "RoboCock" TM or "RoboQuim"TM?

@GayWorldOrder I find it hard to believe that you "love" being incontinent.As my problems are caused by illness I find it very distressing.When I use a catheter I am released from the horrors of extreme urgency and frequency,it saves me from being in dashing distance of a toilet all the time,pads don't help with that,they just catch an accident.I also hate the thought of being ridiculed by others for being seen to be wearing a pad.Thank god for the catheter despite occasional infections.
