Latest luminous electrical device detects loading size and extent of dirt tainted into the fabric or utensils.
Currently, consumers are receiving updates on their dirty laundry via cell phones, computers and TV sets as washers and dryers are linked with remote senses through Internet home links.
Messages indicate about completion of wash, give out warning signals that a lint filter is clogged or a load is too large or there is inadequate water level.
Machines can be remotely controlled to fluff dry clothes or start a load from a distance, a remote place after knowing that it was not switched on for the wash.
A new technology investigation, dubbed Laundry Time, recently began evaluating its use in the devices.
This project is involved by Whirlpool Corp, Panasonic and Microsoft Corp. relying on a wireless network, two TV tuners and Microsoft Media Server software to send the details to devices across the home network and beyond.
Depending on how the pilot and other studies end result, the product will be priced and launched.
According to Whirlpool, modifying its latest models won't be tough if the company decides to offer the technology to the masses.
The most recent washers and dryers work more efficiently due to complex systems of electronic sensors.
Modern dishwashers rely on dirt-sniffing electronics, not timers, to shut off.
Vacuum cleaners can now determine how much daub, soil or stain is on the floor to suction off levels to be adjusted.
