Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has come a long way over the last few years. Found everywhere from smartphones and TVs to cameras and cars, AI devices have advanced to become digital personal assistants, making our lives easier, better and more convenient than ever before. But, now a new AI innovation to come out of CES could help you lessen the load of one of life’s most tedious daily chores — laundry.
When you think AI your mind no doubt conjures up images of robots and self-driving cars but the truth is AI is gearing up to integrate into the nitty-gritty of everyday life too. AI is transforming the way we live, work and play through better interaction with our appliances. And, it’s these seemingly small advances that will have big impacts on consumers’ quality of life.
No stranger to innovation, home technology brand LG unveiled an exciting new home appliance to the world at CES in Las Vegas in January 2020. The brand unveiled the new LG ThinQ AI DD washing machine, which not only detects the volume and weight of each laundry load but also uses AI and advanced sensors to identify various fabric types, ensuring the perfect wash every time.
This use of AI technology in washing machines means that you can wash a mixed load of t-shirts and pants, and the intelligent washer will program the wash cycle to use customised motions, temperatures and times for the best results. By using deep learning technology and comparing over 20 thousand data points related to washer usage, LG says its newest machine takes the guesswork out of laundry, improving cleaning of all fabric types and extending the life of your precious garments in the long run.
What’s more, the machine’s user-friendly ezDispense feature automatically adds the perfect amount of liquid detergent and fabric softener at optimal times during the wash cycle. And when it comes to drying, its Smart Pairing feature sends the optimal dryer setting for each load directly to your compatible LG dryer for added convenience.
The next-generation LG AI DD washing machine is currently only available in the US but will be in South Africa soon.
