Autonomous cleaning system for Dubai International Airport

摘要

This paper outlines the development of a robotic system designed to clean the outer surface of elliptic tapered structures such as Dubai airport concourse. The designed system consists of two identical cleaning satellites connected to a main unit and provides cleaning coverage up to 83° tilt from the horizontal surface of the concourse. The controller design, sensors, localization, and employed communication techniques are presented in this paper along with the final results of the implemented prototype. The system features redundant locomotion to ensure safe and reliable operation while maintaining autonomy and flexibility.
