"Human Washing Machine" Costs €300,000

A Japanese company has unveiled a futuristic device, the "human washing machine," capable of washing, rinsing, and drying a person in 15 minutes. The device, named Mirai Ningen Sentakuki, costs approximately €300,000 and is primarily intended for luxury hotels, spas, and wellness centers.

The device was presented at the Osaka World Expo. The user enters a transparent capsule and sits in a reclining seat. Initially, jets of lukewarm water clean the body for 5 minutes. Subsequently, the capsule fills with warm water, offering an ultrasonic bath for 3 minutes. This is followed by rinsing with warm water and drying with hot air.

The most advanced version features sensors that record biometric data, adjusting the temperature, microbubble intensity, and internal images to prevent anxiety. Some versions also use ultraviolet and infrared light to eliminate microbes.

The company will manufacture 50 units, due to the device's size (2.5 meters long, 2.6 meters high, and 1 meter wide).
