Revolutionizing High-Altitude Operations with Drones

Have you ever noticed the brave "spidermen" scaling towering skyscrapers? Their work involves immense risk. However, with the rapid advancement of drone technology, these versatile aerial machines are increasingly showing their potential to replace humans in high-altitude tasks.

The SLAM100/SLAM2000 handheld laser radar scanner is the main mobile measurement equipment developed by the company. It integrates the industry-level SLAM algorithm and can obtain high-precision and high-definition three-dimensional point cloud data of the surrounding environment without GNSS, achieving on-site reproduction with surveying and mapping-level accuracy.

With the rapid growth of human activities and industrialization, water surface pollution has emerged as one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. Addressing this issue requires innovative solutions that go beyond traditional methods. 

In recent years, revolutionary technology has redefined the way high-rise building maintenance is approached. Drone-based exterior wall cleaning systems have set a new benchmark in the industry by combining efficiency with unparalleled safety. This innovative solution marks a significant milestone in the field of building maintenance, offering both technological advancements and operational breakthroughs.

In recent years, a revolutionary cleaning technology, the drone exterior wall cleaning system, has officially debuted and been put into use. The birth of this technology marks the entry of the building exterior wall cleaning field into a new era of both efficiency and safety, which can be regarded as a milestone in scientific and technological innovation.

For a long time, traditional glass exterior wall cleaning operations have been highly dependent on manual operations by high-altitude workers, which is not only labor-intensive but also accompanied by extremely high safety risks. In contrast, the introduction of drone cleaning technology has fundamentally subverted this traditional model.

Foxtech’s P1 bipedal robot, powered by advanced reinforcement learning, has achieved a major milestone by successfully navigating rugged terrains in Tanglangshan Park, Shenzhen. In a zero-sample, fully open testing environment with no prior data on forest conditions, P1 demonstrated remarkable adaptability, control, and stability. This achievement highlights Foxtech’s robust reinforcement learning framework, which integrates Real2Sim2Real closed-loop systems, modular neural network design, and iterative pre-training algorithms. Together, these innovations enable P1 to overcome complex, real-world obstacles autonomously. Foxtech’s success with P1 reflects its dedication to developing cutting-edge robotics capable of adapting to and thriving in dynamic environments.

With the acceleration of global energy transformation, photovoltaic power generation has become an important path for China to achieve its "dual carbon" goals. By the end of June 2024, the installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in China reached 713 million kilowatts, showing a strong growth momentum. In photovoltaic power generation, photovoltaic panels are core components, and their daily cleaning and maintenance are crucial, which directly affects the power generation efficiency and life of the entire system. According to the "Operation and Maintenance Regulations for Photovoltaic Power Stations", photovoltaic panels need to be cleaned regularly to maintain their efficiency. Clean and tidy photovoltaic panels can absorb solar energy more effectively, improve power generation efficiency, and reduce energy losses caused by the accumulation of foreign matter such as dust and bird droppings. At the same time, regular cleaning and maintenance can also extend the service life of

With the continuous advancement of urbanization, the number of infrastructure such as high-rise buildings, photovoltaic power stations and high-voltage transmission lines has increased year by year, and the high-altitude cleaning market has also developed rapidly. According to market research reports, the global high-altitude cleaning market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6.3% in the next few years, and the market size will reach US$4.6 billion by 2028.

With the acceleration of urbanization, cleaning and maintenance issues of high-altitude buildings, bridges, power facilities, etc. have become increasingly prominent. Traditional manual cleaning methods are not only inefficient and costly, but also pose safety risks in high-altitude operations. High-pressure water jet cleaning technology carried by drones has emerged as the times require, and with its unique advantages, it has become a new solution to this problem. This technology uses a high-pressure water jet device on a drone platform to achieve long-distance, high-altitude, and precise cleaning operations, with the advantages of high operating efficiency, low cost, and good safety.
