Kohler Unveils a Camera For Your Toilet

Kohler has launched the Dekoda, a $599 smart toilet camera that analyzes users' waste to track hydration, gut health, and detect potential issues like blood. 'It also comes with a rechargeable battery, a USB connection, and a fingerprint sensor to identify who's using the toilet,' reports TechCrunch. From the report: The Dekoda is currently available for preorder, with shipments scheduled to begin on October 21. In addition to the hardware purchase fee, customers will need to pay between $70 and $156 per year for a subscription. If you're uneasy about the privacy implications of putting a camera right below your private parts, the company says, 'Dekoda's sensors see down into your toilet and nowhere else.' It also notes that the resulting data is secured via end-to-end encryption.
