The Urinator is a specialized urine delivery device invented by Innovative Research Technology, Inc. in 1998. It was the first commercial substitution device available on the market.[citation needed]
History
editSince its launch in 1998, The Urinator has been featured in various media outlets. It was mentioned in the UK-based publication The Guardian in an article titled Enter The Urinator.[1]. The device has also been discussed in High Times magazine.[2] Additionally, Rolling Stone magazine covered the device for its role in privacy protection and medical testing innovations.[citation needed]
Features
editThe Urinator's primary feature is its ability to maintain the urine sample at a specific, consistent temperature using an electronically controlled heating element. The reusable nature of the device sets it apart from other urine temperature regulators, which often rely on disposable heat pads that can fluctuate between 82°F and 125°F, making them unreliable.
Media Coverage
editIn addition to being featured in The Guardian[1] and High Times,[2] The Urinator has appeared in various other media outlets over the years. Its role in protecting individual privacy has led to articles in Rolling Stone magazine, where it was discussed in the context of its technological advancements and societal implications.[citation needed]
