Optimize Wash Time of Washing Machine Using Fuzzy Logic

Abstract

Washing machines are a common feature today in our household. The most important utility a customer can derive from a washing machine is that he saves the effort he/she had to put in brushing, agitating and washing the cloth. Most of the people wouldn’t have noticed (but can reason out very well (that different type of cloth need different amount of washing time which depends directly on the type of dirt, amount of dirt, cloth quality etc. The washing machines that are used today (the one not using fuzzy logic control) serves all the purpose of washing, but which cloth needs what amount of agitation time is a business which has not been dealt with properly. In most of the cases either the user is compelled to give all the cloth same agitation or is provided with a restricted amount of control. The thing is that the washing machines used are not as automatic as they should be and can be.
