Building management robot and control method thereof

Building Maintenance Robot

This technology is a robotic system for building maintenance that measures the luminance and depth information of a structure via a vision module, identifies protrusions, depressions, and cracks using a control module, and independently operates chipping (removal), injection (filling), and sealing modules.

Existing construction robots are primarily specialized for the construction phase, and there is a lack of professional automated equipment and technology capable of performing maintenance on aging or poorly designed structures.

This technology is an integrated building management solution that automatically detects protrusions (chipping), depressions (injection), and cracks through vision data analysis. It specifically prevents damage to rebar by using color analysis to determine if rebar is present within a protrusion, and controls robot positioning and work tools via movement and manipulation modules. It can be applied to robotic gripping, precision measurement, and automated equipment, thereby improving the efficiency of building management by automating tasks such as defect detection and repair.

Key Features:

• A control module that determines protrusions or depressions in a structure using measured luminance values or depth information.
• A vision module for measuring the depth information of a structure using laser sensors or stereo vision.
• A chipping module for removing protrusions identified by the control module.
• A building maintenance robot that removes protrusions while avoiding rebar if it is detected.
