Nagasaki company, Japan Oasis, has created a wheelchair with its very own built-in toilet that “cleans, dries and deodorizes without the user ever having to leave their seat.” The user has to wear special trousers and underwear though if they want to do their business without anyone knowing. The chair squirts water to clean the messy buttocks, which are then dried with the built in dryer. President of Japan Oasis said “I thought the disabled and elderly would be happy knowing that they could leave their homes without having to worry about the toilet…It’ll certainly make things much easier for caregivers.”
