Abstract
With the development of technology, there has been a considerable increase in the number of skyscrapers in the world. Accordingly, there are increasing requirements with regard to maintenance, such as cleaning, painting, and inspection. However, it is extremely dangerous to work on the walls of buildings, and falls from buildings have accounted for a large proportion of construction accidents. In particular, as the number of buildings with irregular shapes increases, the accident rate during maintenance work has increased each year, with most accidents leading to deaths. An alternative solution must be developed with the commercialization of automatic systems. In this study, fundamental research has been conducted for drafting and commercializing an automation tool with a built-in guide system that can perform cleaning.
