The Future of Washing Machines

Washing machines have been around for many years, there have not really been too many innovations since that time, the most likely probably having to be the combination of both the washing machine and the tumble dryer. But carefully watching the Electrolux Design Lab contest over the last few weeks (the Electrolux Design Lab is basically a yearly contest whereas students can show off there kitchen appliances inventions and designs). I have seen a great innovative idea coming to light, which also comes with a catchy name the "iBasket". iBasket is a washing basket as well as an innovative self activated washing machine.
