Abstract:

The need and demand for robotic technology to increase the uptake of green walls and facades whilst reducing OHS and maintenance costs is clear. The benefits of urban green infrastructure are widely accepted and include urban heat island attenuation, increased bio diversity, reduced carbon emission, biophilia effects, provision of spaces for social interaction, attenuation of rainwater flooding and improved air quality. With climate change and increasing temperatures a stark reality, resilience and liveability as well as sustainability are greatly enhanced through the adoption of Green Infrastructure (GI). Wallbot, a robotic installation to inspect, monitor and maintain green walls offers the chance to reduce OHS issues and maintenance costs associated with green walls.
