Building cleaning robots that can be remotely controlled by a fleet of human operators working from home or in a call centre would be cheaper and safer than fully autonomous ones. I mean, gamers already pull off pretty amazing feats of control on the avatars they walk or drive around with.
- ls15 4y agoThat seems like a better idea. I guess the CleanBot operators would earn more than local restroom cleaners.
- davidhyde 4y agoThat depends on where they can operate from. I would imagine that local Swiss restroom cleaners would be paid more than remote workers operating from another country. Still, I don’t think that people would be happy with a camera operated robot sniffing around their restrooms. ;)
- ls15 4y agoMaybe a robot operater can clean multiple restrooms at once. > Still, I don’t think that people would be happy with a camera operated robot sniffing around their restrooms. ;) I wouldn't probably, but if it means not having to clean their toilet, I think that many people would be happy with the tradeoff. Restrooms in public spaces wouldn't be an issue too.
