Column Paul Harleman Vileda Professional – Workshop Wearables
Reprinted from Schoonmaakjournaal. FacilityApps in Purmer Valley invited me to participate in their Wearables workshop. Wearables – what are they? Google Glass, Apple Watch and all other smart devices you can wear. The future door is wide open for spectacular new wearables.
Humanoid robots in cleaning?
We have been fantasizing about robots in films for as long as we can remember. Robotization is no longer a fantasy. A good example is ASIMO, a Honda project.
Spielerei?
You might say: nice toy, but we won't see robots in cleaning anytime soon. Wrong. They already exist. Robots for pool cleaning, solar panel cleaning, sewer cleaning. Professional scrub and vacuum robots are coming.
Sensors in cleaning
Sensor technology is conquering the cleaning world. They hear, see, smell and feel. Smart sensors can automatically recognize where you are and tell you what to clean today.
Digital revolution in cleaning
A lot will change. Within five years many things will be different. We are on the eve of a new industrial revolution: the digital revolution. Paul Harleman, Customer Group Director Specialty Cleaning at Vileda Professional International. This column was written following the Wearables workshop organized by FacilityApps.
