Multi-tasking: A toilet can measure blood pressure, analyze urine, and dispense medical advice
"Users begin their toilet-room medical at the built-in urine analyzer, which collects five cubic centimeters (0.15 fluid ounces) of urine before analyzing sugar levels. The device cleans itself automatically after the one-minute long test.
Users then move to the blood pressure monitor, within arm's reach of the toilet, then weigh themselves on a set of scales in front of the basin and measure their body mass index (BMI) after washing their hands . . .
. . . Advice about diet and exercise is then dispensed, without any human intervention."
