A method of operating a laundry treatment assembly including a washing machine appliance and a dryer appliance includes performing a drying operation in the dryer appliance, receiving feedback regarding a performance of the drying operation, adjusting one or more parameters relating to a washing operation in the washing machine appliance, and incorporating the one or more adjusted parameters into a subsequent washing operation.

A computer-implemented method for creating a bespoke laundry treatment recipe includes receiving fabric data related to one or more of stain identity, fabric identity, user requirements and user preference; comparing by means of a data processing system said input data with ingredient combination data stored on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, and formulating one or more laundry treatment recipes, said recipes being bespoke to the user input data; wherein said ingredient combination data comprises: multiple ingredient composition data; multiple combinations of said ingredient compositions; and multiple treatment (e.g. stain) categories related to said ingredient composition combinations.

Disclosed is a laundry scheduling apparatus. The apparatus includes a communication unit, an output unit, and a processor configured to pair with at least one washing machine via the communication unit, obtain laundry preference parameters of a user generated by learning based on at least one of a deep learning algorithm or a machine learning algorithm, using at least one of a laundry log of the user or laundry satisfaction information of the user as input data, generate laundry scheduling information by using washing machine information about the paired at least one washing machine, the laundry preference parameters, and laundry item information obtained via at least one of a user input unit, an interface unit, or a sensor, and cause the output unit to output the laundry scheduling information.

Disclosed is a washing machine that performs a washing process in response to a type of a contaminant in laundry in a 5G environment, a method for controlling a washing machine, and a server for supporting washing. The washing machine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a processor, a memory operably coupled to the processor and for storing at least one code executed in the processor, and a driver for controlling rotation of an inner tub so as to perform a washing operation on laundry. The memory may store a code to, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to identify a type of a contaminant in the laundry, determine a first washing process corresponding to the type of the contaminant, and control the driver based on the first washing process.

The present invention relates to an online system and a control method therefor, the online system comprising a clothing apparatus which may determine a cycle or an option by calculating the contamination level and wrinkling of clothes, or intensively treat parts that are contaminated or wrinkled, or recommend laundering with a washing machine when the contamination level or wrinkling is equal to or greater than a reference value, or induce a server or a washing machine to determine an appropriate cycle or option for laundering the clothes.

A method for controlling a laundry washing machine. The method includes: performing a tub loading process comprising operating supply valve(s) to provide a first volume of water through a detergent supply system and into a tub to fill the tub with wash liquid; performing a washing process comprising rotating a drum to agitate laundry in in the presence of the wash liquid; performing a static rinsing process comprising operating a pump to remove any free volume of wash liquid from the tub without rotating the drum; and performing one or more rinsing processes comprising: operating the supply valve(s) to provide a volume of clean rinse water to the tub, operating the pump to remove the rinse water from the drum, and operating the motor to spin the drum at high speed to extract rinse water from the laundry, while continuing to operate the pump.

A method and apparatus for drying a wet textile article with a radio frequency (RF) applicator and a controller, the method includes supplying a power level to the RF applicator to energize the RF applicator to generate a field of electromagnetic radiation (e-field), determining a dynamic drying cycle of operation in the controller, and controlling the power level of the RF applicator according to the determination of the dynamic drying cycle of operation, wherein the wet article is dried.

Systems and methods are described, which relate to the control of additive dispensers to provide defined amounts of one or more additive compounds to water to produce customized water. A given additive dispenser may include multiple inputs and/or outputs. Predefined water profiles may be stored in memory. A given water profile may define the amounts of additives to be delivered by the additive dispensers to achieve desired water characteristics. A controller may determine actual water characteristics of input water based on corresponding sensor data, and may compare the actual water characteristics to desired water characteristics in order to determine the amount of additive or additives that should be delivered to the input water to achieve the desired water characteristics. The additive dispensers may be network-enabled and may include transceivers configured to receive instructions related to production of customized water from a user device.

The present invention relates to an internet home appliance and a method for controlling the same, or an internet home appliance system and a method for controlling the same. According to an embodiment of the present invention, there may be provided a method for controlling an internet home appliance system, the method comprising the steps of: recognizing first information by an external terminal through an information tag provided on a product to be treated: transmitting second information to a server by the external terminal by using an application that interworks with a home appliance which is registered on the server on the basis of user information and appliance information, and which is communication-connected there to: receiving third information from the server by the home appliance and setting information (product treatment information) for treating the product: and treating the product by the home appliance on the basis of the product treatment information that has been set.

A laundry washing machine equipped with a treating agents dispenser comprising compartments adapted to be filled with at least one treating agent and a control panel comprising input devices allowing the user to select or set washing programs and/or parameters of the machine and comprising output devices for giving information to the user of features of said machine and/or a feedback to the user related to the settings/status of the machine. At least one output device of said the devices and at least one compartment of the compartments comprise a common visual identifier.
