Automatische Wasserhähne wurden erstmals in den 1950er Jahren entwickelt, aber nicht für den kommerziellen Einsatz bis in die späten 1980er Jahre produziert, wenn sie zum ersten Mal erschienen (to the general public) at airport lavatories. Story has it that the first airport to adopt the new technology, is O’Hare Airport. Called by other names such as Electronic Faucet, Sensor Faucet, Hands Free Faucet, Touch-less Faucet, even Infrared Faucet, automatic faucets have become a central theme in the American experience. They are now found in places far removed from airports and other institutions, places like restaurants, hotels, casinos, malls, sports arenas, as well as residential properties.
