Disclosed is a laundry treatment apparatus including a voice recognition unit coupled to any one of a cabinet and a door to receive voice of a user and convert the voice into an input signal for driving a laundry receiving portion, and a shielding portion coupled to at least one of the cabinet or the door to prevent vibrations or sound waves generated from the laundry receiving portion from being transmitted to the voice recognition unit.

Laundry treatment apparatus

A method of configuring a laundry course based on speech recognition using artificial intelligence and a device for implementing the same. A washing machine of configuring the laundry course based on the speech recognition includes a speech input unit that receives a speech included with a StainWord or a ClothWord to produce speech data, a communication unit that transmits identification information of speech data and a washing machine to a server and receive course configuring information corresponding to the StainWord or the ClothWord from the server, and a speech guidance unit that outputs a speech guide message that guides a laundry course corresponding to course configuring information, and a control unit that controls a speech input unit, a communication unit, and a speech guidance unit.

Method of configuring laundry course based on speech recognition using artificial intelligence and device of implementing thereof

A laundry treatment machine includes: a cabinet which forms an outer shape and has an input port through which laundry is input; a tub which is disposed inside the cabinet and stores washing water; a drum which is rotatably disposed inside the tub; a microphone assembly in which a plurality of microphones for speech recognition are spaced apart; a door which opens and closes the input port, and has an inner front surface, on which the microphone assembly is disposed, to which the microphone assembly is closely attached, that comprises a microphone hole, which communicates with the outside, formed in each portion where the plurality of microphones are disposed, so that it is possible to eliminate a space where the sound leakage occurs between the microphone assembly and the door.

Laundry treatment machine

A home appliance including an audio input unit including at least one microphone and into which a voice command formed of natural language is inputted; a communication unit which transmits the voice command to a voice recognition system as voice data, and receives a response signal from the voice recognition system; a controller which sets an operation corresponding to the response signal, outputs an operation state, and outputs a guidance announcement, according to a result of voice recognition of the voice recognition system; and an audio output unit which outputs the guidance announcement corresponding to the operation, wherein the controller determines whether it is possible to set the operation or to support a function for the operation in response to the response signal and an operation state of the home appliance, and performs the operation.
