This invention describes a washing machine that learns to predict its vibration using a camera pointed at a special pattern on the washing tub. The learning process requires initial data from both the camera and a traditional vibration sensor. Once trained, the machine can predict vibration using only the camera, potentially replacing the physical sensor.
Why it matters: The rapid advancements in embedded AI processing and computer vision algorithms since 2019 make real-time, accurate vibration prediction from camera data much more feasible and cost-effective for consumer appliances.
