科勒公司推出了Dekoda,一款售价599美元的马桶安装摄像头,旨在分析粪便以了解肠道健康状况。该设备拍摄马桶内容物的照片,以评估水分含量并可能检测到血液,并通过年度订阅(70-156美元)提供数据。 除了健康追踪外,Dekoda还具有指纹传感器用于用户识别,并采用USB连接的可充电电池。科勒公司解决了隐私问题,声明摄像头仅对准马桶内部,并采用端到端加密来保障数据安全。 Dekoda目前正在预售,预计10月21日发货,并加入了不断增长的市场——初创公司Throne也提供类似的马桶摄像头解决方案来分析粪便。这代表了家庭健康监测领域的一个新前沿,但也引发了关于数据隐私的问题。

Home goods company Kohler recently unveiled a new device called the Dekoda — a $599 camera that can be attached to your toilet bowl and take pictures of what’s inside.

CNET reports that the Dekoda analyzes these images in order to provide updates on your gut health and hydration, and to potentially detect blood. It also comes with a rechargeable battery, a USB connection, and a fingerprint sensor to identify who’s using the toilet.

The Dekoda is currently available for pre-order, 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.

Kohler isn’t the only company seeking to take pictures of your poop — we’ve also written about the toilet camera offered by a startup called Throne.
