Abstract

The present application relates to a laundry treating apparatus. More specifically, the present application relates to a laundry treating apparatus having a camera and a control method thereof. One embodiment of the present application provides a method including: causing a drum to move laundry inside the drum; generating time-series images of movement of the laundry by capturing an inside of the drum while the laundry moves over time; determining a movement state of the laundry based on the generated time-series images while the drum rotates at a revolutions per minute (RPM); controlling the RPM of the drum based on the movement state of the laundry to increase a laundry spread value; and after the laundry spread value has increased, increasing the RPM of the drum to perform a spinning process.
