Washing with Your Eyes Closed

Since most people don't read laundry care tags (a whopping 70%) there's a good chance that lots of good clothing gets ruined in the wash. Samgmin Bae designed a tag using RFID technology. The clothing can 'communicate' with RFID-enabled washers, dryers, irons and dry cleaning equipment. The RFID circuitry is also laid out so it visually communicates the care instructions, too - nice little touch!

This is conceptual, but very feasible. I'd love to see this concept happen.
