SWAR TV does two jobs behind one mirror. It runs the full touch-free wash cycle (faucet, soap, mixing valve and high-speed dryer) to cut water and soap use and keep washrooms hygienic, and it hides a 24" screen inside the mirror for news, wayfinding or advertising.

The screen disappears completely when it's off, so the mirror stays a mirror, and it connects over Wi-Fi so content across every unit can be managed from a single dashboard. A clean washroom and a working advertising channel, in one fixture.

What's the last thing you want to do in a public bathroom?

Wait in line and touch everything!

Using Stern's Touchless Cubicles along with Top Occupancy Indicator(TOI) and VacantView Washroom Display, allows a more comfortable experience in the public restroom.

Think you are at the airport and want to use the restroom, VacantView allows you to quickly see if there are vacant bathroom stalls, and when you enter, TOI, with a red or green light, helps you quickly identify the open stall.

From there, you just present your hand in front of the sensor and enter the Touchless Cubicle.

Creating a sustainable and matching design for your project takes things to the next level.

Stern knows both!

Have a look at the matching, Touchless Tubular Faucet and Soap Dispenser at JFK Airport. This matching duo allows for an open deck, making it easy to clean for these high traffic public restrooms.

Airports are evolving - and so are the expectations for every space within them.

At the AAAE/ACC Airport Planning, Design & Construction Symposium in Indianapolis, industry leaders came together to explore the future of airport infrastructure, from sustainability and innovation to passenger experience. Recognized as one of the leading technical events in aviation, the symposium brings together thousands of professionals shaping how airports are designed and operated.

Stern Engineering is proud to be part of that conversation.

Our focus is on creating a total touchless washroom experience - where every interaction is automatic. By eliminating shared touchpoints, we help support cleaner environments, improve passenger flow, and contribute to more efficient, sustainable airport operations.

From water-saving systems to reliable, sensor-activated solutions, Stern products are designed to meet the real demands of busy terminals.
