Kohler’s Numi Is Everything One Wants in a Toilet, and a Lot More

The Numi has what is referred to in the industry as “bidet features”: it can wash and dry its user (there are modes for women and men). Both functions are accomplished via a wand that extends from under the seat that can spray water or blow air. Pressure and temperature are adjustable, as is the spray pattern, which can go from a steady blast to an oscillating pattern that can only be described as invigorating.

I wonder a) what operating system the toilet runs (NetBSD?) and b) what kind of reporting and analytics features it incorporates. For instance, I'm interested in the correlation coefficients between time-of-day, temperature and shit duration.
