Any ideas on how to automatically open a finished dishwasher? (lemmy.ml)

I have a dishwasher that does not open automatically when finished. I can detect when it is finished through a power adapter, but need to open it somehow. Any tips? Is fingerbot strong enough?

How much force does it take to open your dish washer? The one we have at work requires you to yank hard to open it so I doubt anything would do it. But if it’s a super soft button press then maybe.
