What would you pay to have such a machine in your home? A washer and a dryer are in the 500-1000 euro range, would you pay eg. 10.000 euro (or dollar for that matter) for a machine that folds laundry?
The difficulty with home robotics is price vs capability. Capability is still much less than what is expect5ed via TV and movies. I think I can make a robot that sets the table up for breakfast/lunch/dinner, but just the hardware would cost the equivalent of a family car. A bit cheaper if I specialize the HW to its task only. But then it does only the table thing. Other tasks? More software, more general hardware. Sure, I can have a robot to do floor sweeping and another to make the table, but then I end up with multiple robots which share a lot of similar HW.
