Fuzzy Logic Based Control System for Washing Machines

In the Indian household, washing machines are a common feature today. The most important utility that can be derived from washing machine is that, effort can be saved what had to put in brushing, agitating and washing different types of clothes who need different amount of washing time which depends directly on the type of dirt, amount of dirt and cloth quantity etc.The washing machines that are used today serves all the purpose of washing but which cloth need what amount of agitation time is an important aspect. The work present in this paper describes the procedure that can be used to get a suitable washing time for different clothes with the help of fuzzy logic control.The procedure is based on the principle of taking inputs from sensors subjecting them to the fuzzy arithmetic and obtaining a crisp value of washing time.
