Connected Appliances (CloudWash)






Cloudwash is a prototype washing machine by Berg. Berg is an amazing company, which is creating prototypes to explore how connectivity will change appliances in your homes.


Cloudwash is awesome!
Reading their case study I can explain why:
First Berg revised two Zanussi Washmachines, and created two prototypes.
A technical prototype, that became connected to the web. And a design protype, to redesign their interface and also connectiveness to smartphones.

This connectiveness makes it able to let you start and stop the washing machine using your smartphone (also when away from home). And to receive a notification when your wash is finished
Also there are all kind of futuristic features, like your washing machine can order detergent on her own. And if the labels of the clothing are visible in the machine, can change the preset temperature…cool right!!!

Wouldn't it be fantastic if the fashion industry would create interactive labels so you can name the clothing (so no losing your clothing to a borrower anymore) and never washing on the wrong temperature!

This is the future of connectiveness appliances. (Keep in mind that Samsung is doing this kind of thing already in fridges)

Have a look for yourself:
