Gecko Bionic Design Window Cleaner by Olcay Tuncay Karabulut

Gecko Bionic Design Window Cleaner, just like its name suggests, this concept window cleaner was inspired by a Gecko’s ability to climb different surfaces easy. The key to the gecko’s sticking success is that tiny hair like structures called setae that can be found on the base of its toes. Those microscopic bristles have the ability to split into hundreds of nano-sized tips called septula, giving gecko adhesive abilities on dry and smooth glass or walls.

Recently, several robots for building façade cleaning have been designed and developed to reduce the cost of these tasks as well as increase the safety of workers. Keeping this mind, Olcay Karabulut has designed a unique window cleaner for household and small office use.
