Abstract: A washing machine includes: a cabinet on a front side thereof with an inlet through which laundry is input; a tub inside the cabinet and having an opening corresponding to the inlet; a drum rotatably inside the tub; a motor configured to provide power for rotating the drum; a first vibration sensor configured to detect vibration generated from the tub; a second vibration sensor configured to detect vibration generated from the cabinet; and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to perform a spin-drying process according to a spin-drying profile defined by a rotational speed of the drum, and to control rotation of the drum based on a first vibration value corresponding to an output of the first vibration sensor and a second vibration value corresponding to an output of the second vibration sensor during a spin-drying process.

Abstract: A washing machine, and a method of controlling the same, the washing machine including a tub; a drum in the tub; a motor configured to rotate the drum; a vibration sensor configured to detect vibration of the tub as the drum is rotated during a dehydrating course, and to produce a corresponding vibration value; and a controller configured to stop the motor to stop the dehydrating course based on the vibration value produced by the vibration sensor indicating that vibration of the tub exceeds an acceptable standard of vibration during the dehydrating course, and thereafter restart the dehydrating course, and change the acceptable standard of vibration based on a number of times of restarting the dehydrating course in a plurality of laundry cycles.
