Check out the NIM1000 being demonstrated at CES 2010 later this week. It’s a capacitive touch-sensitive Android module that can be integrated into washer\/dryers, microwaves, and, presumably, refrigerators and more. Similar to what the ZII Labs has done with their EGG and TRINITY, the NIM1000 is only designed for other manufacturers like GE and Whirlpool to use. You can see below how Touch Revolution<\/strong><\/a>’s module would work. The washer\/dryer features slide controls, stain guides, and more while the microwave can pull double duty as a “kitchen control center”.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, we have yet to see the NIMble from last year so who knows if\/when we’ll have washing machines with NIM1000’s installed.<\/p>\n
