ABSTRACT:
A smart laundry system includes a tag communicating device for reading laundering instructions and water processing information contained in an electronic tag attached to a material item while the material item is within a laundry machine. A controller controls the laundry machine in accordance with the laundering instructions. A water processing system processes waste water produced by the laundry machine in accordance with the water processing information to form gray water for use in a subsequent wash. The electronic tag maintains a count of the number of launderings of the material item. An automatic folding and sorting machine folds and sorts the material item based upon folding and sorting instructions stored on the electronic tag. A tag programming device is used to identify, locate, query, and program the electronic tag.
