As stated by Alaxander it is a conceptual design, and in concern with the kids then I think that this bathroom would not be suitable as a families main bathroom if there were young children to think about, and I am pretty sure that if you slipped and fell in this bath it would be quite a similar outcome to slipping in a regular bath.

hmmm, but what about safety in relation to kids and what happens if you slip and fall in the bath?

you could turn it off…and save water while you’re at it, too…

The first image on the top shows the area where the water is released, this is not touch sensitive but more of a sonar like technology where your position is bounced back.

All you’d have to do to apply shampoo is just to step out from under the area where the water jets are.

As for the balancing act, although this is purely a conceptual design, I’m sure that the touch sensitive panels would not need the whole weight of your body to register a choice between hot and cold. It’s not too difficult to redistribute pressure between your feet when you’re stood up, think of it more that if your weight is 50/50 between the panels then you would have warm water.

another fantastic concept! however, i often stand AWAY from the water to apply shampoo to my hair or something like that. how can i get away from it if it always knows where i am??
