Shake-a-Brush Adds Vibro Function to Normal Toothbrushes

Kit Eaton — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 10:00:50 EDT

The Shake-a-Brush from iTouchless seems a strange concept right from the start: it customizes your normal everyday toothbrush into a battery powered vibrating one. You can buy battery powered brushes already can't you? And, ok, electric toothbrushes may be expensive, but they're also designed to cleverly clean your teeth, and shake-a-brush will just, um, shake your brush. Ah... now we understand: it's a highly moddable gadget, perhaps? If you have a big stockpile of toothbrushes ready, it's available now, but costs $39.95. [iTouchless via Chipchick]

iTouchless Auto-Flusher Gives You the Posh Toilet You Always Wanted

Kit Eaton — Mon, 14 Jan 2008 07:00:46 EST

Somehow slipping under our toilet-obsessed butts at CES, the iTouchless Auto-Flusher saves you the effort of pressing down on that flush handle once you've gone. Using IR to sense you, it does make using the toilet a little more hygienic and its 4 "C" batteries will last for 23,000 flushes, which seems incredibly reasonable (3 years of use, apparently). Buy it for $199.95, install it in your toilet cistern and you could impress your visitors with that "Oooh... it's just like a 5-star hotel!" feeling. Thankfully a manual override is available.

iTouchless Towel Dispenser: World's First Bounty Machine

Louis Ramirez — Tue, 13 Mar 2007 10:38:47 EDT

You've gotta be on one lazy bastard to justify having this in your kitchen. It's a battery-operated Bounty dispenser. Wave your fat arm in front of the machine's sensor and it'll automatically dispense a full or half-sheet paper towel. No word on pricing yet, though personally I'm holding out for version 2.0 which dispenses and cuts the Bounty for you. – Louis Ramirez

iTouchless Touchless Trash Can

johnb — Wed, 22 Feb 2006 10:34:41 EST

I actually saw this thing a few months ago at big, weird junk store. When you move something about 6 inches from the lid, a magical AI Smart Chip II opens the lid and closes thanks to patented SilenX silent lid closing thing. Then there's the Eagle Eye sensor that senses your presence and the Hyperbole Inducer, used by the iTouchless makers to describe extremely basic electronics stuck inside a trash can.

The can runs on 4 D batteries and seems to open and close at odd times if you brush against it, which would freak me out.
