Ok, now I have seen Everything! They must be running out of innovative ideas.

I actually saw this a few days ago and I wonder if they thought everything through so no one can see you showering? I mean that's kind of a daunting task to design a bathroom like that and make sure no one can see in on a cruise ship. Looks really cool though.

It's kind of like the shower in the Celebrity Reflection. The glass has an frost feature where you throw a switch and it immediately becomes opaque to provide privacy. I'm sure this would be the same thing.

You're probably right. I would guess, and maybe wrong that opaque would require power and the power off would be clear. Hope you don't lose power while showering in port.

Kinda of reminds me of Central Park/Boardwalk balconies....people have the sheers closed, but don't close the drapes when disrobing. :o Hopefully people don't forget to throw the switch!

And then for the person that doesn't care they let it all hang out for whoever wants a peak. [emoji16]

Blah. Still not impressed with anything Quantum.

[njkruzer]

Does look like there are shades that pull down. Didn't see them at first and also thought you'd be showering in full view!

I'm not terribly interested to begin with. At $50K for 7 days, I am definitely out.

[John Reid]

I guess there was an overwhelming customer demand for such innovation.

I didn't even know the price but was wondering. Um yeah I'm so far out I'm barely on the same ship. We are looking at Bermuda next year and I'm desperately trying to keep it under 3 grand in a balcony. So yeah this is not for this blue collar guy. Ha ha. [emoji16]

When you are off the ship in port I guess you won't have any problem spotting which cabin is yours.

For the home windows that currently exist with this technology, the power off mode is opaque. The powered mode is clear, something about it excites the particles and goes clear.

 

Thus, if the power is out, the windows are frosted.

That makes more sense and I thought that might be the case. My degree in Electronic Engineering is now 39 years old.

Which ship class is it that has a men's room with a window over the urinals? Wave to the people, LOL.

I seem to recall that the pee wall came later.

NCL Epic

[Capt_BJ]

I had to check the date

 

nope …. not 1 April …..

[Ladysilver]

No thanks. :cool:

[Livelikeagypsy]

I actually like it. If I win the lottery, why not?

[barbeyg]

So, at what point would you want to be in the bathroom and have clear glass others can possibly see into?

 

I could see having a sitting area jutting out, but THIS sitting area? [emoji23]
