MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511115626 A) filed by Kcc Institute Of Technology & Management, Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, on Nov. 22, 2025, for 'autonomous ai-driven garment identification, sorting, and multi-chamber washing system.'
Inventor(s) include Pankaj; Hamid; Ankit Yadav; Prof Mohd Wazih Ahmad; Geetanjali Mittal; and Azhar Ahmad Khan.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an autonomous, AI-driven laundry processing system capable of transforming mixed, unsorted garments into fully optimized wash cycles without human intervention. The system includes an intake unit for receiving bulk garments, a separation mechanism that isolates individual items, and an advanced detection and classification chamber incorporating high-resolution imaging, spectroscopic analysis, and thickness and density sensing. An artificial intelligence engine performs sensor-fusion analysis to determine fabric type, color category, soil level, and wash-risk factors. A motor-driven rotary sorting platform directs each garment into a corresponding washing chamber configured for its specific fabric requirements. Each washing chamber autonomously determines wash parameters and receives precisely dosed detergent and softener through an automated dosing module. Embedded sensors provide real-time feedback for adaptive wash-cycle adjustments. After washing, garments are transferred to a secure locker system that assigns a unique QR code for user retrieval. The invention delivers a complete end-to-end laundry automation workflow, enhancing fabric safety, cleaning efficiency, and resource optimization while eliminating manual sorting and cycle selection."
