A laundry treatment device includes a washing module configured to perform operation related to washing, a camera configured to capture an image of a tag attached to a laundry, and a processor configured to acquire laundry information of a plurality of laundries, to convert the acquired laundry information into encoding data, and to acquire values of laundry control variables corresponding to the converted encoding data based on a laundry course learning model learned using a plurality of reference data through a deep learning algorithm.

A method of operating and a laundry treating appliance, including a rotatable drum at least partially defining a treating chamber into which laundry may be placed for treatment according to a cycle of operation, a processor programmed to at least as the laundry is being placed in the treating chamber, at least one of measure, sense, analytically determine, estimate, or receive as an input a first load size of the laundry in the treating chamber to define a determined first load size and select at least one of a color or an intensity corresponding to the determined first load size to define a first light setting.

A washing machine and a method for controlling the same are disclosed. The washing machine includes a plurality of washing devices, each of which includes a heater. Based on a target temperature of wash water heated by one heater of any one of the washing devices, the washing machine changes a target temperature setting environment of wash water heated by the remaining heater. The washing machine includes a first heater to heat wash water stored in a first tub, a second heater to heat wash water stored in a second tub, a control panel to provide a target temperature setting menu for setting a target temperature of the wash water stored in the first tub, and a controller to drive the first heater and the second heater. The controller changes the target temperature setting menu supplied from the control panel in response to the second target temperature.

In particular, a method performed by one or more devices is disclosed, the method comprising: obtaining a first intensity information item (210) representative of a spectral image (208) resulting from an soiling (202, 302) of a textile (200, 304); obtaining a second intensity information item (212, 214) representative of a spectral image (216) characteristic of at least one property of at least one part of the textile (200, 304); determining at least one treatment parameter, wherein the determination of the treatment parameter takes place dependent both on the composition of the soiling (202, 302) from the first intensity information item (210) and on the at least one property of at least the part of the textile (200, 304) from the second Intensity information item (212, 214); and outputting or triggering an outputting of the at least one treatment parameter.

A washing machine has a rotatable drum and drum drive and a drum container for it, an inlet device to introduce water into the drum onto laundry therein, a pump and water pipes, several temperature sensors on the drum container, a heater for heating water and a washing machine controller connected to everything. Laundry in the drum is moistened with a defined quantity of water, wherein the moisture penetration varies depending on the fiber type of the laundry. Then a predefined quantity of water with a predefined temperature is applied to this laundry. The washing machine controller can deduce the fiber type of the laundry from the way how quickly and to what extent heat is extracted from this quantity of water.

In a laundry treatment apparatus including a cabinet having an opening formed in one side thereof, a door rotatably coupled to the cabinet to open and close the opening, a drum rotatably provided inside the cabinet and configured to accommodate laundry introduced through the opening, a door lock unit provided inside the cabinet and configured to lock the door when the door closes the opening or release a locked state of the door in order to open the opening closed by the door, a communication unit configured to receive remote inputs of a user for communication with an external device, and a switch unit configured to connect or disconnect an external power, a locked state of the door and connection to the external power are maintained while a user maintains remote control after a preset cycle including rotation of the drum is performed.

A laundry treating appliance for treating laundry according to an automatic cycle of operation includes a cabinet defining a cabinet interior. A drum is rotatable within the cabinet interior, and at least partially defines a treating chamber. The treating chamber has a treating chamber air inlet and a treating chamber air outlet. A drying air circuit is fluidly coupled to the treating chamber air inlet and to the treating chamber air outlet. The laundry treating appliance can include first and second air temperature sensors, at least a first humidity sensor, and a controller operably coupled with the sensors.

The present invention relates to a combination washing and drying appliance for laundry. The appliance is configured to automatically transfer wet clothes from the washing unit to the dryer unit for automatically drying the clothes. The appliance has either vertical or horizontal stacked washing and dryer units. The washing and dryer units have a common conduit for automatically transferring the wet laundry from the washing unit to the dryer unit after a wash cycle is completed. The dryer unit is automatically activated for drying wet clothes when the wet clothes are deposed in the dryer drum of the dryer unit. The common conduit is accessible only after completion of the wash cycle using sliding doors positioned on the washing tub of the washing unit and the dryer drum of the dryer unit.
