Clothes-Steaming Wardrobes

The 'ThreadRobe' Smart Wardrobe Steams and Organizes Clothing

— March 21, 2017 — Tech
The 'ThreadRobe' smart wardrobe is designed as an effective solution to keep your clothing clean and organized to ensure it's always ready for wear. The 'ThreadRobe' works by having your clothing outfitted with RFID tags and then loaded into the wardrobe bin in order to have them ready at a moments notice. Users can easily select via the accompanying app which outfit or item they would like to wear.

When the 'ThreadRobe' smart wardrobe is prompted to deliver the user with a garment, the system will first find it then steam it before presenting it to them to ensure it's as fresh as possible. This would come in handy for those who want to ensure they always look their best before heading out of the house without having to deal with irons or steamers themselves.
