Abstract
A dishwasher appliance includes a tub defining a wash chamber for receipt of a load of articles for washing, a door providing selective access to the wash chamber, and a camera assembly mounted with a view of the load of articles. A controller is configured to determine that a cleaning cycle has been completed, obtain a first image using the camera assembly, determine that the door has been opened, obtain a second image using the camera assembly, determine that a predetermined number of articles from the load of articles has been removed from the wash chamber based at least in part on the first image and the second image, and provide a user notification that the load of articles is dirty in response to determining that the predetermined number of articles has been removed from the wash chamber.
