Avoid Embarrassing Accidents - Monitor Your Urination and Defecation Rhythms

A small company in Japan has developed a device that monitors your bodies activities and notifies you via a PC or smartphone when you'll need to use the bathroom.  This alert happens about 15 to 20 minutes before you have to "go". The device uses ultrasonic waves and monitors the rumblings and fullness of bowels and bladder in order to warn the wearer before an accident occurs.  The device may find great use in nursing homes.  For more details on this invention and the future of this small unit, read the full article here in the Japan Times.
