“Yes, certainly,” answered her husband, “A big party will be the easiest thing, won’t it? Then we can start to invite people to dinner in small numbers next month.”

23、Believe it or not, the concept of a human washing machine isn’t new. At the 1970 Osaka Expo, Japanese electronics giant Sanyo Electric showed its “Ultrasonic Bath” (超声波浴缸), a human washing machine that cleaned, massaged, and dried the person in a fully-automated 15-minute cycle. The concept never really took off as a commercial product, but now another Japanese technology company wants to take a shot at it, promising to deliver a modern take on the human washing machine by 2025.

Science Co. Ltd., a company known for its many innovations in bath and kitchen technology, has announced its plans to create its own version of the human washing machine. Named “Project Usoyaro”, it uses the latest fine technology, as well as a variety of monitoring sensors (传感器) and an artificial intelligence system to produce a complex bath experience.

Science has stated that the goal of Project Usoyaro is not only to clean the body of the user, but also to provide a healing space where you can relax, listen to the sound of soothing music and enjoy the view of images displayed on a water-resistant display inside the machine. Sensors inside the washing machine will measure the state of nerves (神经), and the built-in AI will use the collected data to create the most comfortable atmosphere possible.

Project Usoyaro is surely a pet project of Science Co. Ltd. chairman Yasuaki Aoyama, who was only 10 years old when Sanyo’s original human washing machine appeared. He was so attracted by the invention that he decided to improve on it if he ever had the chance. Science expects that Project Usoyaro will result in a functional human washing machine by 2024, which the company hopes to showcase at the 2025 Osaka Expo.
