Some McDonald's restaurants in Japan have installed sink systems that come with a slot that "washes" your smartphone.
The system, dubbed WOSH and developed by Japanese company WOTA, is a sustainable hand-washing stand.
Along with a reusable water-based sink, WOSH uses a hydrological cycle system and deep ultraviolet lights to sterilize smartphones by 99.9 percent in 30 seconds.
WOSH is designed to let users wash their phones when washing their hands.
While WOSH can be installed anywhere, many were surprised to see something so "futuristic" in a McDonald's restroom, leaving impressed comments about the new tech.
