The difficulties of loading a hamper of dirty clothes into a washer, transferring it to a dryer, removing and then folding all the different types of clothing and undergarments is a desired app for a home robot – and one being attempted by a whole class of robotic students at UC Berkeley using a WillowGarage PR2 robot.
WillowGarage video and story by Alex Knapp at Forbes is the most in-depth thus far about the process, complexities and novel solutions.
