US-based health technology company Throne has introduced a new camera specifically designed for toilet bowls. This camera takes photographs of the user’s feces after using the toilet, and these photographs are used to analyze health status. The camera is equipped with artificial intelligence technology that is still under development, which gives it the potential to diagnose various health issues early.
People may not typically want their feces photographed, but fecal analysis is an important method for diagnosing certain diseases, assessing the condition of the intestinal fauna, and evaluating water consumption. Throne aims to make this process faster and more effective using artificial intelligence.
Data Encryption as a Security Measure
In response to security and privacy concerns, Throne has stated that the collected data will be stored anonymously and will only concern the contents of the toilet. Users can access their data anytime and can delete it if they wish. Additionally, this data will be encrypted according to high security standards.
This new technology offers a new dimension in health monitoring. What about you, would you have such a device in your own toilet? Throne aims to break new ground and provide a tool that will help users better understand their health conditions.
