In the UK all the urinals in the bathroom will be flushed automatically at the same time using an auto-syphon that is attached to a tank that's slowly and continuously filled with water.
So it requires no moving parts or electricity, and flushes automatically at a regular interval depending on how fast the water supply is.
And it's been that way basically forever.
That's awesome! Do you by chance know what they are called? I did a quick search but all I see are electronic ones.
They're typically just called a "urinal automatic syphon"
Here's a great Steve Mould video on them if you want to learn more

Thanks. I love Steve Mould.
Sounds like a waste of water. Why not simply use motion sensors or flushless urinals like they do in the US?
The modern ones do, this was the solution before motion sensors
