Window Contamination Detection Method for the Robotic Building Maintenance System

The robotic high-rise building maintenance system is an automated system of performing maintenance works on the outer walls of high-rise buildings, including cleaning, coating, and inspection. This study, a robotic high-rise building maintenance system is proposed that overcomes the conventional limitations and introduces an algorithm for contamination measurement that uses an optical (IR) sensor; quantitative contamination evaluation based on the algorithm; and a strategy for the maintenance of the outer walls of high-rise buildings.
