DISHWASHING SYSTEM, CONTROL DEVICE AND PROCESS FOR CONTROLLING OPERATION OF A WORK DEVICE
A control device for a dishwashing system includes processing circuitry configured to control operation of a work device that performs an operation related to a washing rack that is placeable on each of a plurality of support surfaces extending in substantially the same plane, the plurality of support surfaces including a first support surface, a second support surface disposed in association with a dishwasher capable of washing a dish in the washing rack, and a third support surface; and control the work device to operate such that the washing rack is transferred from the first support surface and returned to the first support surface via the second support surface and via the third support surface. A direction in which the washing rack is carried into the dishwasher and a direction in which the washing rack is carried out of the dishwasher form a substantially right angle as viewed from above.
CUSTOMIZING CLEANING CYCLES
A method includes receiving, at an artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator of a computing system, image data of one or more objects from an image sensor and performing an AI operation on the image data at the AI accelerator of the computing system using an AI model. The method further includes determining a custom cleaning cycle at the AI accelerator in response to performing the AI operation.

Spot detection assembly for a dishwasher appliance
A dishwasher appliance includes a cabinet having a wash chamber for receipt of articles for cleaning, a rack assembly slidably received into the wash chamber and configured for the receipt of the articles, and a fluid dispensing assembly for dispensing a fluid onto the articles in the rack assembly during operation of the dishwasher appliance. Further, the dishwasher appliance includes a spot detection assembly. The spot detection assembly includes a transparent component and an imaging device arranged adjacent to the transparent component. As such, the imaging device is configured to detect one or more fluid spots on the transparent component, which is indicative of fluid spots being present on the articles.
