Pictor is a concept for a service robot for cleaning and painting surfaces
at risky places like high buildings, towers, nuclear plants and industrial
sites.

A cleaning laser prepares the wall before an airless machine paints
the surface absolutely clean without any atomized spray. It is also
possible to paint oversize pictures on surfaces for advertising or art.

The robot is able to climb on walls because of its innovative feet which
are coated with a nano surface. The orientation on the wall takes place
via laser scanner, colour sensor and a camera. The system features a
fuel cell for energy and a colour tank.

The project was a teamwork together with Florian Behm.
