Nowadays, the main cleaning methods for cap and pin insulators of high voltage towers are helicopters and manpower and often, because of jet stream instability, helicopter crashes and casualties happen.
AI·Robot can land, like ornis, on the cap and pin insulators of the high-voltage electrical towers, then uses its robotic arm to fix the position and through its camera lens determine the area to be cleaned and simultaneously direct the different wavelength laser beam towards the multiple compound pollutants found on the cap and pin insulators to proceed with thorough removal, solving the helicopter crashes and personnel accidental falls.
