A Remote Control (RC) Solar-panel cleaning dusting arm,
controlled by software from a PC or mobile phone.
The unit which costs $387 and a 10 year warranty not
including the replaceable arm, is fastened to the solar
panels somewhere in the middle of the roof.
It includes
A. A rag holder
at the end of
B. A folding arm, and
C. A telescopic antena with a low resolution camera.
The arm works in three stages:
a. Storage: The arm and camera are folded in, so as not
to
be affected by the elements (wind, sun or dust).
b. Loading: The arm reaches off the roof and down to
the
loading platform where a rag is attached. (Or a rope with
a tiny elevator is used for bringing the rag or a "rag
magazine" to the end of the roof, where it then loads
itself
with the rag.
c. Cleaning: A human controls the unit from the PC. If it
is
a "cleaning company" the unit is run from a mobile phone
with a code. The rag keeps the arm from scratching the
panels, and cleans them from dust.

why do you need the human? It's not like this is flying a Predator or something. Why couldn't this be a windshield wiper on a monthly timer? |

Marketing, bungston, marketing. It's more video
game-like this way. Other than the RC biz, the rest
is well-thought and bunworthy I think. |
