NUR AZLENEE BINTI MOHAMAD Kolej Poly-Tech MARA (KPTM) Alor Setar

The Smart Assist Drying Rack is a smart indoor drying solution developed to overcome the limitations of conventional clothes drying methods in high-humidity and space-restricted environments. Traditional drying approaches depend heavily on weather conditions, require large areas, and often lead to slow drying performance, particularly in compact urban homes and tropical climates.  This innovation aims to reduce drying time, improve drying efficiency, and maintain lower energy consumption compared to conventional electric dryers. The system integrates a motorized lifting mechanism, humidity and temperature sensors, and assisted airflow technology. Real-time environmental monitoring enables optimized drying conditions, while automated height adjustment enhances space utilization. Smart control features via remote control or mobile application provide added convenience and user safety.  The Smart Assist Drying Rack combines automation, environmental sensing, and energy-efficient airflow into a practical household system suitable for residential and commercial applications. The product offers a space-saving, efficient, and modern alternative for indoor laundry drying. Future improvements may include enhanced IoT integration and broader commercial deployment.
