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?

what kind of dishwasher takes less than 2 kilos of force to open?
