I was thinking today that if you put an LCD screen over a urinal you could map some kind of XY input in the bowl to a mouse cursor so you could interact with the display, but then I decided that would be too much trouble in terms of accuracy and how would you input a click and stuff like that so maybe the better solution would be an proximity-based sensor that would read your personal prefs off a keychain RFID tag or something and just automatically display some pre-selected content (i.e. your inbox, facebook, twitter or etc.) Special bonus because it’s at a urinal, the system could also theoretically give you (or the police) an update on your blood-alcohol content, STDs and any drugs you might be on. Plus, wouldn’t it be cool to serve custom ads based on a person’s biochemistry? Blood-sugar, pregnancy, the presence of anti-depressant medicines. This stuff is gold and you people are all just pissing it away!
