摘要
People's development in society is influenced by social and economic aspects in daily life, which is why people of all ages and types must be included in our environment and offered the independence they require to live a normal life. The elderly and disabled people are the main targets. We provide smart toilets to assist them, so they don't have to worry about basic necessities and can feel comfortable and free to visit places such as malls, hotels, concerts, and cinemas. To achieve this goal, the quality of public spaces and public toilets should be improved. This study intends to design an intelligent toilet system, especially for the elderly and persons with impairments, using cutting-edge technology. In addition to all of the advantages of this smart toilet, it may be equipped with an air quality monitoring system to initiate cleaning activities. Humidity, VOC, temperature, amount of water, and O2 have all been found to have a significant impact on human health. The research started with the iToilet project, which developed a solution that resulted in a prototype for home use that included the ability to alter the position and height of the toilet as well as other auxiliary means using a variety of technologies. Moreover, it was necessary to develop this concept in public spaces, and the Toilet4Me2 project made this possible by exploring and implementing this concept. The Toilet4Me2 system also provides an armrest, vertical adjustment mechanisms, a tilting lift function, and a shower unit, as well as emergency identification, detection facilities and optional supplements. These facilities are dedicated to elderly and / or disabled users, either able to walk or in a wheelchair.
