What is this project about?
In our project, we hope to be able to create a device that will automate most of wall painting, and that the device can be compact, transportable and easy to assemble for indoor use.
Why did we choose this project?
Wall painting is such a common and essential part of building construction, renovation and maintenance works. However, it is a mundane and time consuming activity, where it takes an average person an hour to paint two coats on a 3o square meter wall using a paint roller. Painting for long hours and prolonged exposure to paint fumes pose an ergonomic and chemical hazard to professional and home painters alike. We hope to automate this process to remove these hazards and reduce the time needed to paint walls.
