Do you hate folding laundry? Wearing wrinkled clothing? Digging through your closet? ThreadRobe ($3,250) can rid your life of all those troubles. Shipping next year, this “wardrobe on steroids” ostensibly can help select your outfits using everything you’ve placed inside, then deliver those garments freshly steamed. You still have to wash and dry all your clothes, and to get started, you have to attach RFID (radio-frequency identification) tags and take photos of each item using the companion app. But think about the payoffs: You can even send ThreadRobe a photo while shopping, and it’ll display clothes you own that match.
