Development of High-Pressure Washing Aerial Robot Employing Multirotor Platform with Add-on Planar Translational Driving System

We propose a multirotor aerial robot for high-pressure washing task. The robot consists of a multi rotor platform, an add-on planar translational driving system(ATD) and a high-pressure washing system. The ATD is equipped on the multirotor and consists of three ducted fans that can generate the force on horizontal plane. The ATD also allows multirotor to suppress the reaction force generated by nozzle of high-pressure washing system and spray water accurately. In this study, we focus on the development of the proposed aerial robot system. Through experiment, we show the successful water spraying by suppressing the reaction force while flying.
