Launbot is a compact travel gadget designed to dry and straighten clothes without ironing. Instead of pressing garments on a board, Launbot lets you hang freshly washed clothes and finish them using controlled heat and airflow. It is built for travelers, small apartments, and anyone who wants clean, smooth clothes with minimal effort.
Compact, Lightweight, and Travel-Friendly
Weighing just 600 grams and roughly the size of a lunchbox, Launbot easily fits into a backpack or suitcase. Its slim form factor makes it practical for hotel rooms, dorms, RVs, or short business trips where traditional irons are inconvenient or unavailable.
AI-Controlled Heating and Airflow
At the core of Launbot is a graphene-based heater that can raise the internal temperature up to 80ยฐC. An integrated sensor checks conditions every second and adjusts the heat automatically to prevent overdrying. The twin cyclone generator pushes warm air evenly through the fabric, helping clothes dry quickly while smoothing wrinkles at the same time.
Hands-Free Drying and Wrinkle Removal
Using Launbot is simple. Clothes are hung directly from the washer onto one of the inflatable attachments, and the machine does the rest. Heat and airflow work together to relax fibers and remove wrinkles, eliminating the need for manual ironing. It works with everyday garments such as T-shirts, suits, and denim jeans.
Multiple Attachments for Different Needs
Launbot includes three attachments: a torso airbag for shirts and jackets, a pants airbag for trousers, and a drying bag. The drying bag dries up to four or five garments at once, which saves time during busy moments.
Clean, Fresh, and Fabric-Safe
In addition to drying and smoothing, Launbot supports UV-C and mite removal to help keep clothes fresh. Users add a dedicated fragrance option to the drying cyclone to lightly scent garments during the process. Despite its performance, the device operates at a low noise level of around 45 dB.
Energy-Efficient Everyday Use
Launbot uses less than one-tenth the power of traditional dryers and handles multiple garments at the same time. It supports both 110V and 220V power.
Pricing and Availability
Launbot measures 170 ร 450 ร 60 mm and sells at a planned price of US$139. Early supporters on Kickstarter can purchase it at a reduced price of US$109, positioning it as an affordable alternative to irons and bulky travel steamers.
