: The futuristic 'human washing machine' concept from 1970 is being revived by Yasuaki Aoyama, now chairman of Science Co. The updated version, called 'Mirai Ningen Sentakuki,' features a jet fighter-inspired design with AI that monitors vitals for optimized cleaning. Set for display at the Osaka Kansai Expo, it plans to allow 1,000 visitors daily to experience the 15-minute wash. Science Co. aims to 'wash the mind' and potentially create a home model in the future.

The idea of a 'human washing machine' from the 1970 Japan World Exposition is returning with modern enhancements, thanks to Yasuaki Aoyama of Science Co. Inspired by the original Ultrasonic Bath from Sanyo Electric Co., the new 'Mirai Ningen Sentakuki' is designed to provide a quick 15-minute cleaning experience using advanced technology.

Unlike its predecessor, this futuristic washer boasts a jet fighter-reminiscent design with a transparent canopy. It uses sensors to monitor the user's vitals and adjusts the water temperature accordingly, while an AI system projects calming visuals based on the user's emotional state.

Science Co. intends to allow approximately 1,000 visitors to try the invention daily at the upcoming Osaka Kansai Expo. Although the company is only showcasing it at the expo, there are aspirations to develop a home version that aims to refresh the mind as well as cleanse the body.
