It was tested at Google and Apple, is backed by Tim Cook, and claims to be a high-tech way of saving water. Say hello to Nebia.

Today, Silicon Valley attempts to reinvent the shower. Nebia has already been installed at Apple, Google, and Equinox Fitness, and the company counts among its investors Apple CEO Tim Cook, Bebo founder Michael Birch, and the Schmidt Family Foundation.
The draw? By employing a special atomization process (more like a mist than a stream), Nebia uses 70% less water than a traditional shower — only about .75 gallons per minute, which is much less than both the average shower (2.5 gallons) and what the EPA defines as environmentally friendly (2 gallons).
Of course, when BuzzFeed News heard about it, my editor had one question: "Can Brendan take a shower?"
So, here's what showering in the future could be like.

To really test it, I decided to get nice and sweaty at the gym first.
