Sega Toylets トイレッツ
Japanese Sega Corporations new video game hardware Toylets (toylets.sega.jp) is a new gaming platform with a whole new paradigm of user interaction. A pressure sensor is applied and the pressure exerted by a stream of urine aimed at the sensor serves as controls for minigames.
You can choose one of four games per session:
- The North Wind and Her: The stronger the pressure of your urine, the harder it blows off a girls dress.
- Graffiti Eraser: The stronger the pressure of your urine, the faster the Graffiti wall becomes clean.
- Manneken Pis: The pressure of the stream is directly translated to how much liquid was urinated.
- Milk from Nose: Two characters blow milk out of their noses to push the other out of the ring. The stronger pressure between you and the person that used that urinal before you wins. It’s a great sumo-like multiplayer game, but not in realtime.

Soap Flakes
Today, most of the soap we use is liquid soap, which contains a lot of water. Block soap instead is more concentrated and therefore has some ecological benefits: You don’t transport unnecessary water around. In place of plastic bottles you can simply use paper for packaging. The solid blocks can easily be piled and allow a greater space efficiency in a truck. Young swiss designer Nathalie Stämpfli (http://nathaliestaempfli.com) has come up with a very satisfactory solution with her Soap Flakes soap holder. It takes an ordinary bar of soap, and shaves off tiny soap flakes every time you want to wash your hands.
