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?

This is something my mother used to do as well. When the machine was finished she opened the door and let it vent. I asked the guy installing our machine some years ago and he told me that in newer machines that won't be necessary and could even disable the integrated venting mechanism. But of course this depends on your machine...
