Nov 5 2009Shower With 3-D Wrap Around Touchscreen
Listen, I love standing in the shower watching full-length movies as much as the next water waster (which is why I just had a swimming pool sized hot water heater installed), but what's the matter with a traditional projection setup? I swear, people are always trying to one-up me. Too bad I know how to do that turtle shell trick in world 3-1 of the original Super Mario and can get unlimited one-ups. Suck it -- I will always out one-up you!
The Roca Waterdrop Shower Room surrounds you by a 3D touchscreen, allowing you to watch movies while you bathe. The touchscreen also allows you to control the temperature of the water and the intensity of the jets.
I mean, sure if you want to be tacky about it. I think we can all agree the touchscreen is a little much. I would have gone with voice-control. AND WHERE ARE THE LASER EXFOLIATORS? Cheapskates.

I guess you could put porn on that bad boy and kill 2 birds with one stone. If it's inclosed like that though I think I would get clostrophobic.

first fails at being first
this is like putting a tv screen in your car's steering wheel - POINTLESS.

just looks scary... I don't want to shower with a giant shark or anything else in 3d for that matter. Especially for what that thing would cost.

i agree with 4, 8 & 13. i would make my girlfriend watch hardcore whilst i banged her under the spray to wash any sweat away and whispering shit about threesomes and more pills in her ear.

It's shaped like a white droplet. I wonder what idea they had when engineering the design
18. JADE - November 5, 2009 3:38 PM

19. Closet Nerd - November 5, 2009 3:57 PM

Here is another 3D rendering I made of something stupid that will never see the light of day. It looks clean, white and futuristic, so all the tech blogs will post about it, even though IT'S NOT A REAL PRODUCT AND HOPEFULLY NEVER WILL BE.
22. naas - November 5, 2009 4:18 PM
@20 ha absolutely! the floormat could(should)also look like an off yellow giant paper towel, nearly completing a full bathroom-shower set all right in time before the holidays

Giant Cotton Swab?
24. ciao - November 5, 2009 5:32 PM
I would prefer watching a movie while I soak in suds.
oh yeah, it looks like a giant cotton swab, or our little swimming buddies.

why not make the shower look like a white chocolate hershey kiss? --oh wait, never mind.
26. Tin - November 6, 2009 6:09 AM
I'd so want this.

Shower sex is very practical. Two birds, one stone. Or two girls and I'm stoned........I like the second verse better.

Well, it is America.

Why would you take a shower longer than 60 minutes?
