Once the door closes after someone has left, power jets, hidden close to the door release water a few times. The water then moves to the other end of the tiny loo, which is where it drains off. The flush itself retracts into a bracket in the wall. Meanwhile, an air slot next to it releases air probably to dry the area as much as possible. The whole process is pretty quick and only lasts a few minutes.
Once the toilet is ready for use once again, the door opens, and the flush is automatically released from the bracket in the wall and is ready for the next human.
How did the internet react?
Not surprisingly, the clip shared on X on April 6, amassed 26.5 million views, 91.9k likes and plenty of comments to match. "We need these everywhere. Though might create quite the queue," wrote one user. "Self-cleaning, automated, time-controlled system," shared another. "Sounds fascinating! It's amazing how innovation is transforming our everyday experiences. Finding ways to make public facilities more sustainable and efficient is a step towards a conscious and responsible urban living," wrote a third.
