Drones built by the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) are used to clean and water the Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay, solving the problem of cleaning high structures without risking human lives.
Equipped with hosepipes, drones built by the Singapore University of Technology and Design are deployed to clean the Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay.
The Straits Times on April 4 was given an exclusive first glimpse at how drone technology is mobilised to clean the Supertrees, following a 2023 partnership agreement between Gardens by the Bay and SUTD. “It’s usually a very tedious process,” said Mr Wee, who has worked at Gardens by the Bay for more than a decade.
The drone – named Blaster – is specially designed to handle the strong force of water spraying from the hose it carries, said Associate Professor Foong Shaohui of SUTD, who oversees the project. The team is also in talks with solar farm operators to use drones for cleaning panels deployed on water, which are normally harder to clean, he added.
