At the 1970 World Expo in Osaka, Sanyo demonstrated their vision for the future by showcasing some of the appliances they thought would make it into the home of the future. One such device was this crazy Ultrasonic Bath, a pod-like womb-thing designed to clean, massage and dry humans in just 15-minutes.
The user would climb into an opening on top via a ladder. Then just set the temperature desired water temperature and the pre-rinse cycle starts, spraying the user with jets of hot water for 5 minutes. Crazy. Might as well put some clothes in there with you. Check out a video below.
Then the chamber fills up with hot water for a 3-minute massage bath, with high-pressure jets and golf ball-sized “massage balls” hitting you. The ultrasonic wave generator creates a cloud of air bubbles that lifts dirt from the skin. After that it’s hot rinse and dry.
Too bad it never made it into our homes. It’s crazy, but I bet it felt good.
Wow! It looks modern even for todays’ standards… I wouldn’t mind installing one of these in my bathroom given that it has a smaller version which fits into a regular modern bathroom…
