While vehicles have taken the hybrid route, the humble toilet could potentially move towards a similar direction, with it merging the functionality of an average urinal as well as toilet bowl in a single contraption. The urinal is located at the front half of the bowl (aim better, guys!), while the back half works like a standard toilet, where all solid waste will land and get flushed away to keep things nice and clean. The whole idea of such a design would be the conservation of water, alongside ensuring our eco-system is greener since urine kept out of the sewage system will vastly reduce the amount of nitrogen in wastewater treatment plants to a mere 20% of the original. It does take some getting used to, aesthetically speaking, of course.
