"Here's another addition to the internet of things: London-based design firm Berg has created Cloudwash, a prototype cloud-connected laundry machine with a minimalist, customizable user interface that connects to a smartphone.
Because people typically only do laundry a few different ways, Cloudwash has three programmable presets for everyday use. More washer settings are available through a smartphone. Next to the presets is a delay toggle, with a screen showing when the load of laundry will be done".
This does not relate to school,but it is science-technology based due to discovering how to do this.
I like the sound of this,but it also seem to be a bad thing because what if your internet stop working?.
It may would try this prototype to see if it works for me but I don't really like the idea of it replacing your actual washing machine, because of the fact,that it may stop working due to not having internet.

Great blog post, you have really great information. I think that towards the end you have some wording that sounds weird, but I understood you. It's great that you implied your thoughts and connection to this article. Do you think that your parents would love something like this? What was the main idea of this article?
ReplyDeleteWow. The number and variety of everyday appliances that can be connected to the internet is astounding. Our world keeps becoming more and more connected. You do have great information and an interesting topic, but your paragraphs laid out oddly; it's pretty confusing. Maybe you could try separating them with a space, since they're so small. Your font also changes halfway though, and you seem to have the same citation twice, but I don't think those are huge problems. I really enjoyed reading this. I do the laundry at my house, so this could be really useful to me someday. However, I am left wondering: what about the settings of the washing machine makes clothes less likely to lose their color or shrink? What's the difference between it and a normal washer, besides internet connection?
