Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A mobile diagnostic app that uses acoustic analysis of machine sounds to identify specific mechanical failures.
  2. A standardized, interactive troubleshooting guide specifically for common washing machine spin-cycle failures.
  3. A universal sensor kit that attaches to older machines to provide real-time status alerts on spin cycle completion.
