The invention was shown yesterday in the acts of the International Women's Day and consists of a original System (named Lazy Man System) that forces a man to necessarily USE the washing machine 50% with his wife.

The traditional image of the wife doing all the laundry at home because her husband just dissapears when it's time to wash the clothes has arrived to it's end.

The Spanish Store 'Servei Estacio' thought of a way to force men in their houses to get involved in the 'washing machine process', and they contacted the Creativity Agency'DeBuenaTinta' for a proposal.

The result is a simple and precise System that can be applied to all washing machines. It consists of a fingerprint sensor where the fingerprints of husband and wife are stored. The software (developed by Intuate Biometrics) allows acess to each one only one of two times. Let's say it in another way: it's impossible for the same user to be granted the access two consecutive times.

In this way, the washing machine only works when alternatively husband and wife access the sensor. A simple way to share EXACTLY 50% of the washing responsabilities at home.

As a Bonus Track, DeBuenaTinta also thought it would be good to involve men also in the ironing process, so they designed an ironing surface that would keep them fit as they iron their wife's shirts. In this way there's no need to go to the gym and they can do exercise at the time they get the admiration of their loving couple.
