    Abstract: A shower system includes on one or more valves and a plurality of showerheads. The plurality of showerheads are electrically coupled to one another and configured to receive electrical signals from one another. The plurality of showerheads are fluidly coupled to the one or more valves and configured to receive water therefrom. The plurality of showerheads includes a sprayer, one or more sensors, and an integrated user interface. The sprayer is configured to dispense water provided by the one or more valves. The one or more sensors are configured to register motion gestures made by a user. The integrated user interface is configured to control operation of the sprayer. The one or more sensors generates an internal signal to the plurality of showerheads corresponding to the motion gesture. One of the plurality of showerheads is a master showerhead.

    Abstract: A cabinet apparatus includes a housing and a door. The housing extends along a central vertical plane. The housing defines a storage space and an access opening into the storage space. The door has a mirror, and the mirror includes a front surface defining a mirror plane. The door is movably mounted to the housing to be alterable between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the door encloses the front access opening and the front surface of the mirror faces away from the housing. In the open position, the storage space is accessible via the access opening. When in the open position, the front surface of the mirror opposes the central vertical plane and an acute inclusive angle is formed between the central vertical plane and the mirror plane.
