The basic details
The basic goal of the Scrobby Solar project is to develop a robot that is able to clean solar panels autonomously. This with an affordable price target (350 euros) and minimal modifications to the system. After comparing some options I chose to work with just rain water for the cleaning actions (no need for a water supply, no frost issues in winter) and a tether based motion system.
A quick intro vid
Despite my video production talents and with some quick help of my sister I've managed to upload a quick introduction video. It shows some of the making process, plus some test runs on my small scale testing setup (which is a lot easier to work on than climb a roof and dance for rain every time I want to test something).
Before heading into the electronic designs I'd like to go over the mechanics of the second prototype and the changes made. I think it'll clarify some of the demands put on the electric designs I'll be discussing later on.
I'm going to kick off this project documentation by showing you some, hopefully, interesting details about the mechanical parts, the 3D printing work and putting it together.

It is a sound idea. Thank you for letting me know about it. The campaign's main goal is to spread the notion that there are investing opportunities everywhere. Cleaning carpets can be difficult no matter where you live, whether it be in a high-rise building or your basement. If you want to maintain your home clean and free of dirt and grime, you must hire the best local carpet cleaning company, such as https://www.advancedsteamcleaningsd.com/ To prevent carpets from getting constantly soiled, you need someone who understands how they function.
