Environmental characteristics of habitable environments (e.g., hotel or motel rooms, spas, resorts, cruise boat cabins, offices, hospitals and/or homes, apartments or residences) are controlled to eliminate, reduce or ameliorate adverse or harmful aspects and introduce, increase or enhance beneficial aspects in order to improve a “wellness” or sense of “wellbeing” provided via the environments. Control of intensity and wavelength distribution of passive and active Illumination addresses various issues, symptoms or syndromes, for instance to maintain a circadian rhythm or cycle, adjust for “jet lag” or season affective disorder, etc. Air quality and attributes are controlled. Scent(s) may be dispersed. Hypoallergenic items (e.g., bedding, linens) may be used. Water quality is controlled. Noise is reduced and sounds (e.g., masking, music, natural) may be provided. Passive and active pathogen controls are employed. Controls are provided for the occupant and/or facility personnel, as is instruction, and surveys, including assessing wellness.

A handwashing station that includes a basin, a liquid dispensing system, and an air dispensing system. The liquid dispensing system is configured to dispense a liquid into the basin to wash a user's hands. The air dispensing system configured to dispense air into the basin to dry the user's hands. The user can wet, wash, rinse, and dry their hands from within the basin.

A reservoir dispenser for a bidet washing apparatus includes a housing unit having a first chamber and a second chamber; a lid with an opening therethrough; an activator, wherein the activator is located within the opening of the lid; a stem having a stem top end piece in the first chamber and a stem bottom end piece in the second chamber; and a connecting tube, wherein the tube is permanently or reversibly attachable to the second chamber, wherein the connecting tube includes a water inlet, a choke, a suction tube, and a water outlet, wherein the water inlet, choke, suction tube and water outlet are in fluid communication with the second chamber.

A filtration apparatus includes a flow path, a valve provided on the flow path, a first light source configured to emit a first light including ultraviolet (UV) light toward the flow path, a second light source configured to emit a second light including visible light or infrared light toward the flow path, a first optical sensor located out of a path of the first light and the second light, electrodes provided on the flow path, and a processor electrically coupled to the valve, the first light source, the second light source, the first optical sensor, and the electrodes. The processor is configured to alternately operate the first light source and the second light source, receive a first signal from the first optical sensor while the first light source emits the first light, and control the valve and the electrodes to sterilize the flow path based on the first signal.

A shower device comprises a body wash storage container for storing a body wash, a multi-waterway switching valve for switching waterways, at least one showerhead capable of expelling clean water, a mixer for mixing the body wash with clean water, and a foam dispenser.

A reservoir dispenser for a bidet washing apparatus includes a housing unit having at least one chamber, wherein the at least one chamber is capable of holding a liquid wash solution; a water inlet, a connecting tube, and a water outlet, wherein the water inlet, connecting tube and water outlet are in fluid communication, wherein the connecting tube is located between the water inlet and the water outlet, wherein the connecting tube includes a choke, and wherein the water inlet, connecting tube, and the water outlet are connectable to the housing unit; and a suction tube located between and in fluid communication with the at least one chamber and the choke.

A soap dispenser includes a housing including an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve, and a soap container having an exterior wall and an interior wall and configured to slide axially relative to the housing, with the interior wall having openings for soap. In a first position the soap container is housed within the housing and the interior wall is located within the inner sleeve, and in a second position the soap container is axially extended from the housing and the exterior wall is axially extended from the inner sleeve.

Various embodiments include components (e.g., a processor in a vehicle advanced driver assistance system) configured to identify subsystems that require testing in order to verify their compliance with a safety requirement. The components may determine whether verification of compliance requires that the subsystems be tested at PON, at POFF, during runtime or a combination thereof, dynamically determine the achievable parallelism for testing the identified subsystems, dynamically determine coverage level requirements for performing or executing built in self tests (BISTs) on each identified subsystem, and perform or execute the BISTs on the subsystems at the determined level of parallel and at the determined coverage level.

The invention relates to a sanitary fitting that is comfortable to use for outputting mains water and prepared water of at least one preparation type, in particular filtered and/or boiling and/or chilled and/or carbonated water, wherein at least one control unit is provided for controlling the respective water flow of the mains water and/or the prepared water, and an operating unit is provided for contactlessly influencing at least one of the water flows, in particular both water flows, and for generating and forwarding control signals to at least one of the control units.
