Hospitality / hotels

Hotel and hospitality bathrooms as a recovery surface for travel, performance, and longevity guests.

Biomarkers
  • Specific gravity

    Urine concentration. Direct hydration signal.

  • pH (urine)

    Urine acidity. Drift signals diet, hydration, infection risk, and renal function.

  • Heart-rate variability

    Beat-to-beat variation. Autonomic balance, recovery, stress, and overtraining signal.

Sensors
  • Urinalysis test strip

    10-parameter reagent strip read at the seat. Captures pH, nitrites, leukocytes, glucose, blood, protein, ketones, urobilinogen, bilirubin, and specific gravity from each void.

  • Urine spectroscopy (optical / SERS)

    Non-contact optical analysis of urine in the bowl or stream. Uses vis-NIR absorbance, fluorescence, and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to fingerprint analytes without consumables. Calibrates against the same biochemistry strips read by urinalysis.

  • ECG electrodes

    Contact electrodes integrated into the seat for short-arm and short-leg ECG. Captures rhythm, conduction, and waveform morphology each sit.

  • PPG / optical sensor

    Photoplethysmography optical sensors at the seat and handrail contact points. Captures heart rate, HRV, and SpO₂ from blood-volume pulse.

  • Mirror camera

    Low-resolution facial and torso imaging behind the mirror with on-device inference. Reads heart rate, respiration, and SpO₂ via remote photoplethysmography (rPPG); also captures skin tone, posture, and gesture. Raw frames never leave the room; only features.

Open questions
  1. 01

    How might we make the hotel bathroom the recovery surface for high-performance guests?

  2. 02

    How might we offer signal without making the room feel surveilled?

  3. 03

    How might we standardise the spec so a guest can rely on it across properties?
