Piezo Shower - Piezoelectric Shower Self Heats Water

This Piezo Shower concept offers a shower structure that heats the water passing through it by taking energy from the movement of the water. The Piezo Shower does not use any electricity to heat the water, nor is any needed to power the touchscreen display that controls and provides information on your showering.

The designers of the Piezo Shower, Natalie Weinman, Victor Stelmasuk, Sebastian Jansson and Fernanda Pizá, created a working prototype in Paris. The shower derives power to heat the water and to power the touchscreen display from the movement of the water through the piping. The pipes have fibers enclosed within them and when water is pushed through the pipes friction on the fibers creates electricity and heat. However, I get the impression that some energy is required somewhere to at least get the shower started.

The touchscreen display for the shower is an additional aid to help make showering as eco friendly as possible. The display allows you to adjust temperature and water pressure. The display will also inform you of how long you've been in the shower and how much water has been used. This helps keep the user aware of just how much water they're using for their shower, particularly for people who are prone to losing track of time when washing.

The Piezo Shower is a beautiful, aesthetically pleasing shower that should help to reduce the electricity bills of a household while losing none of the functionality of a shower. In fact the household would gain a modern touchscreen display for controlling and monitoring showering. It'll be interesting to see if this design evolves into a mass-produced product.
