The Future Is Here
Architect and Interiors India|August 2023
The bathroom is no longer just a functional space; it has evolved into a sanctuary for relaxation, rejuvenation, and self-care. Smart technology is playing a pivotal role in elevating the bathroom experience with innovations in toilets, showers, and mirrors with features you did not know you needed until now!

The Future Is Here

AUTOMATED OASIS

Recent technological advancements have revolutionised consumers’ lifestyles, leading them to seek products that add value through technology to their modern way of living, including bathrooms. The emergence of ‘smart bathrooms’ has become a common feature in today’s homes, providing customers with a wide range of options to create their personalised, tech-enhanced oasis that suits their preferences.

“Currently smart technology is present throughout our homes, from operating lights or music with our phones and AI assistants. Smart devices are becoming must-haves for today’s connected consumer, and the bathroom is just an addition as smart toilets occupy less space and fit seamlessly in today’s lifestyle.” Sandeep Abraham, President - Sales, Cera Sanitaryware Limited.

With smart toilets featuring automated lid opening, touchless flushing, and personalised bidet functions, one now enjoys a more hygienic and convenient bathroom experience. The digital shower system allows you to set the perfect water temperature and flow through a user-friendly interface, and even preheat the shower remotely using a mobile app. The connected mirror is a game-changer, with built-in LED lighting, anti-fog capabilities, and helpful information display like the weather and notifications. Integrating the bathroom into the IOT (Internet of Things) enables voice commands for faucets and other appliances, promoting energy efficiency and scaling down water wastage. The data monitoring feature also helps analyse water and energy usage, contributing to more sustainable living.
