Abstract

Systems and method of processing laundry include a first vision system configured to identify a first corner of the piece of laundry. A first end effector of a first robotic arm retains the first corner of the piece of laundry and suspends the piece of laundry from the first end effector. A second vision system is operable to identify a second corner of the piece of laundry. A second end effector of a second robotic arm is operable to retain the second corner of the piece of laundry. The first and second robotic arms are operable to suspend the piece of laundry from the first and second corners in an open condition, to lower a lower end of the piece of laundry, and to simultaneously release the first and second corners to drop the piece of laundry in a flattened condition.
