A clothes dryer (100), a method and device (200) for calculating a humidity value of clothes in the clothes dryer. The method for calculating the humidity value includes: acquiring sampling points of a humidity sensor during a first time period; extracting a maximum value from the sampling points, and generating a maximum-value accumulated value; acquiring maximum-value accumulated values during a second time period, and generating an average value; acquiring a current maximum value during a current first time period; and generating a current humidity value.

A method of operating a laundry treating appliance with a treating chamber for treating a load of laundry the method comprising supplying a rinse to the treating chamber during a rinse cycle, rotating the treating chamber at a tumbling speed, spinning the treating chamber in an extraction cycle to remove excess moisture from the load of laundry, sensing a parameter indicative of a remaining moisture content value in the load of laundry, comparing the remaining moisture content value to a pre-determined remaining moisture content value.

Disclosed is a clothing management apparatus. Disclosed clothing management apparatus comprises: memory; a steam generation apparatus for generating steam; a steam discharge member for spraying clothing with the steam generated by the steam generation apparatus; a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature inside the clothing management apparatus; and a processor which, when a clothing management start command is entered, stores the temperature sensed by the temperature sensor in memory, and controls the steam generation apparatus to carry out the action corresponding to the sensed temperature and clothing management start command, wherein, if an additional clothing management command is entered within a previously set time following an execution of an action corresponding to the clothing management start command, then the processor controls the steam generation apparatus to carry out the action corresponding to the temperature data stored in memory and additional clothing management command.

An object treating apparatus includes a tub, a rotatable drum for receiving an object, an induction heater for heating an outer circumferential face of the drum, a motor for rotating the drum, an upper temperature sensor, a lower temperature sensor, and a processor. The upper temperature sensor detects a temperature of a space between the tub and the drum. The upper temperature sensor is disposed inside the tube at an upper portion of the tub. The lower temperature sensor detects a temperature around condensed water at a bottom of the tub. The lower temperature sensor is disposed inside the tub at a lower portion of the tub. The processor can determine a drying ending timing based on the temperatures detected by the upper and lower temperature sensors.

A clothes care apparatus aimed to prevent drying errors of clothes, prevent a dry time from increasing, and reduce consumption power. The clothes care apparatus includes: a chamber configured to accommodate clothes; a humidity sensor positioned inside the chamber; a steam generator configured to supply steam to an inside of the chamber; and a controller configured to determine an amount of humidity change inside the chamber based on an output value from the humidity sensor during a steam process, and control the steam generator to supply the steam based on the amount of humidity change.

A wireless sensing device disposed a drum along with laundry to measure humidity in the drum, thereby increasing accuracy in estimation of a degree of dryness, a dryer for determining a degree of dryness of the laundry using the wireless sensing device, and a method of controlling the dryer. The wireless sensing device includes a sensing module including a humidity sensor for measuring humidity in a drum of a dryer into which the wireless sensing module is thrown; a sensor communication module transmitting or receiving data with a main communication module of the dryer through wireless communication; a sensor controller configured to control the sensor communication module to transmit a humidity value corresponding to an output of the sensing module to the main communication module; and a sensor power supplier supplying power to the sensing module, the sensor communication module, and the sensor controller.

An artificial intelligence laundry drying machine is provided. The artificial intelligence laundry drying machine includes a communication unit configured to receive washing information of a washing machine from the washing machine, a drying unit configured to dry a drying object, and a processor configured to acquire information about a dryness degree of the drying object by using the washing information and perform drying by using the information about the dryness degree.

A method of operating a laundry treating appliance for treating laundry according to a treating cycle of operation. The laundry treating appliance comprises a treating chamber for receiving the laundry that is selectively accessible through a door movable between opened and closed positions. The method comprises determining at the end of a laundry treating cycle whether the door has been opened and subsequently reclosed and reducing humidity in the treating chamber after the determination that the door has been reclosed.

A method of treating laundry in a laundry treating appliance having an air supply system and a heating system both operably coupled to and controlled by a controller to supply heated air to a rotatable drum defining a treating chamber, the method including the application of an enzyme solution to the laundry during a cycle of operation.
