Folding toilet designed by two students of the University of Huddersfield, Humphreys and Gareth Elliott Whiteley is claimed to be very practical. Because it will save a third of the room than a conventional toilet.
The advantages are as follows :
- To conserve water, the device is dubbed Iota has a smart watering system that will work when the toilet was in an upright position.
- Toilets fold more efficient because it uses only half and two liters of water once watering, compared to most of the toilets could spend six liters of water once the flush.
"The toilets used to have a lot of problems, excessive water usage thus making garbage in the surrounding sediment and can pollute water. Conventional toilet is also very large so as to make the bathroom feel cramped," said Humphreys and Whiteley.
Iota is currently still in developing, Humphreys and Whiteley has filed a patent application for the design and has entered Manufactures and Commerce (RSA) Student Design Awards. They call this toilet can save more than 10 thousand liters of water per person each year.
