This is one of the stranger items of technology I will post. It’s toilet underwear! The Japanese say their space toilet will be ready within the next five years.
It’s “clean and easy to use;” astronauts are supposed to wear the toilet like a diaper around their waists all of the times.
“Sensors detect when the user relieves him or herself, automatically activating a rear-mounted suction unit that draws the waste away from the body through tubes into a separate container. In addition to washing and drying the wearer after each use, the next-generation space toilet will incorporate features that eliminate unwanted sound and odor.”
Awesome. Check this website out to see a prototype picture and read more info.
