iBasket: Futuristic wash ware for the primordial
It’s funny, how innovators go out of their way to concoct groundbreaking inventions, which eventually turn out to be passé. One such entity is Geopeng Liang, whose finalist entry was posted in Electrolux’s Design Lab 2008. He’s apparently come up with this cloths hamper, that waits till it contains certain weight of clothing, after which, it does a basic cold wash. In the meantime, it flushes air through the cloths, which ensures that there are no unpleasant odors emanating, as the pile builds up. The iBasket also instant messages you about its current status. It’s not just the futile product that’s bugging me in this case, but it’s also the cheap wannabe ‘i’ gimmick that’s getting prefixed before every ‘innovative’ and ‘modern’ product that makes it’s way to the market. (Apple must be tired of filing lawsuits repeatedly.)
