WORKING

Fold laundry

Laundry

Yes. Specialised machines are already working in homes, and Memo has published a large autonomous evaluation across unseen homes.

WORKING

Sort laundry

Laundry

Specialised systems can already group folded garments; collecting and sorting arbitrary dirty laundry is less mature.

EARLY

Put clothes away

Laundry

This is beginning to appear in product plans, but reliable drawer-and-wardrobe work is still an early capability.

DEMONSTRATED

Load a dishwasher

Kitchen

Yes. Autonomous manufacturer demonstrations now cover table clearing, food disposal and dishwasher loading.

DEMONSTRATED

Clear a table

Kitchen

Yes. This is one of the stronger current demonstrations of long-horizon household manipulation.

WORKING

Pick up clutter

Tidying

For small recognised objects, yes. General-purpose tidying across arbitrary household clutter remains harder.

EARLY

Make a bed

Bedroom

Products are beginning to target it, but evidence is much thinner than for laundry folding or dishwasher loading.

DEMONSTRATED

Make coffee

Kitchen

Yes, in constrained setups. Memo has autonomously operated an espresso machine in manufacturer demonstrations.

DEMONSTRATED

Open doors

General

Humanoid research and home-robot systems have demonstrated door manipulation, though handles and doors vary widely.

DEMONSTRATED

Climb stairs

General

Some bipeds can do it. Most wheeled household robots cannot use ordinary stairs.

EARLY

Prepare simple food

Kitchen

Domestic robots have shown pieces of food preparation, but general unsupervised cooking is still early.
