A mortar scraping robot for a whole wall in construction

One of the challenging research issues in building construction is using robot for reducing people's labor intensity. This paper develops a cement mortar scraping robot which can scrape a whole wall in one time without operator invention. In this paper, the mechanical and electrical structure of the robot is described, and the algorithm of the omnidirectional movement algorithm is given. The robot is tested in construction site, and the result shows that it can reduce people's labor intensity and improve work efficiency significantly.
