Abstract
Housework is very hard work. The work of folding laundry is one of them. This paper discusses an automatic T-shirt folding robot that we have developed. After you take a T-shirt out of the washing machine and put it on a specially-developed hanger to dry, our robot folds the T-shirt in a completely automatic way. It can also detect whether the T-shirt is dry enough to be folded and put away. In addition, our robot is able to continuously fold a plurality of T-shirts. We hope our robot will be able to help ease some burden of everyday housework.
