I recently discovered this posting on the Urilift: http://www.johnchow.com/the-worlds-most-high-tech-urinal/ The Urilift is a reasonable solution to the problem of public urination. It's a men's urinal that stays below ground during the day and rises at night (with the help of an attendant).
I live in San Francisco where the homeless population is depressingly large and the lack of public restrooms is a huge problem (especially where I live in the Mission District). The city decided to install these really expensive self-cleaning enclosed bathrooms that cost money to use. I've noticed that when used by the homeless population, it's more of an office for dirty dealings than a restroom. I think the Urilift needs to come to San Francisco and help mitigate some of the problems that are an unfortunate reality here.
