More than 75 percent of the world’s population is expected to live in urban areas by the end of 2050, which means increased struggle on roads, for vehicles, for gadgets as well as for living space. The tech world around us is going compact and so are our homes, so to cope up with this compactness it becomes obligatory to reduce the shape and size of household electronics too. The Orbit washing machine concept by Electrolux offers a new way to wash clothes silently without using soap or water, and that too in just few minutes. This spherical machine, which clears all stains with ease, would definitely bring a revolution in domestic laundry.

Its working is as easy as it seems. You can carry the spherical drum along and put your dirty clothes inside it and then place the drum inside the ring of so called Orbit washing machine. The machine is capable of producing its own energy as its ring comes equipped with huge hidden batteries. The induction technology enables reloading of the batteries by the energy produced by the drum while working. The impact of constant electric current stream and liquid nitrogen’s superconductivity occurrence produces magnetic levitation, which makes the drum rise and hover in the air. At this very point, the drum behaves like an electromagnet that could be controlled by electrical impulses.

The drum’s internal working to remove stains from clothes is equally interesting. It performs cryogenic cleaning with a jet firing solid carbon dioxide at supersonic velocity, which removes dirt and stains without harming clothes. Once the clothes are clean, carbon dioxide is sucked back into the tube and again transformed into solid form from gaseous form. The discharge of negative ions freshens up the air as well as the clothes. It is durable enough with two layers of shatterproof heat insulated glass covering. No doubt, this concept of cloth washing can break ground in the world of domestic laundry and would surely make you say “Never fear, the sphere is here.”
