Japan Launches Luxury Human Washing Machine
Japan has introduced a high-tech washing machine for humans called the Mirai.
It's made by a company called Science Inc.
and it's not for homes but for fancy places like luxury hotels and spas.
The machine washes, rinses, and dries your whole body in about 15 minutes.
It uses tiny bubbles to clean you and has sensors to make sure you're safe.
It's very expensive, costing about 385,000 dollars, and only a few will be made at first.
One hotel has already ordered it, and more buyers are interested.
The idea isn't new; a similar machine was shown at an expo 50 years ago, but this one is more advanced.
Japan's Science Inc. has launched the Mirai Human Washing Machine, a full-body automatic bath pod.
The machine washes, rinses, and dries a person in about 15 minutes using microscopic bubbles.
It is equipped with sensors to monitor heart rate and other vitals for safety.
The Mirai is priced at 60 million yen (approximately 385,000 dollars) and is aimed at luxury hotels, spas, resorts, and theme parks.
Only 40 to 50 units will be produced initially, with one hotel already placing an order.
