See Tiny Device That Could One Day Replace Your Washing Machine (watch video)

For this tiny portable washing device, washing machines could soon become obsolete. It looks like a little bar of soap, but ‘Dolfi’ is a high-tech gadget that uses ultrasonic technology to convert a bucket or a sink anywhere in the world into a dirt-busting washing machine.

To use Dolfi, all you have to do is fill a sink/bucket with water, add dirty clothes and detergent, and drop the device in as well. Switch it on and stand back as it emits powerful ultrasonic waves that travel through water, creating high pressure bubbles.
