Autonomous devices, systems, and methods for packing unfolded laundry articles

An autonomously operating system for packing unfolded laundry articles, comprising:

• a container configured to receive a plurality of unfolded laundry articles;
• a movable surface configured to receive the container thereon, the movable surface comprising at least one of a driven conveyor, driven pusher, and driven rollers;
• at least one drive motor configured to impart motion to the received plurality of unfolded laundry articles disposed in the container, the at least one drive motor being configured rotate the at least one of the driven conveyor, driven pusher, and driven rollers;
• at least one sensor configured to detect two or more container fill heights within the container;
• and
• a controller in operable communication with the at least one drive motor and the at least one sensor, the controller being configured to instruct the at least one drive motor to rotate the at least one of the driven conveyor, driven pusher, and driven rollers and the container disposed thereon rapidly back and forth repeatedly until a maximum height variation in the two or more container fill heights falls within a threshold range, as detected by the at least one sensor.
