How Robotics and AI are Reshaping the Future of City Skylines: Michael Brown of Skyline Robotics | Ep. 37
In this episode of Industry Ignited, Dr. Leeanne Aguilar interviews Michael Brown, Chairman and CEO of Skyline Robotics, the company behind Osmo—the world’s first robotic-armed window-cleaning system. Brown shares how a shrinking labor pool, extreme safety risks, and rising urban skylines sparked Skyline’s mission to reinvent facade maintenance using AI, LIDAR, computer vision, and real-time force sensing. He explains how Osmo cleans up to three times faster than human crews, captures structural data for predictive maintenance, and creates new career pathways for operators rather than replacing jobs. With global expansion underway in New York, London, and Tokyo, Brown reveals how Skyline is pioneering a safer, smarter, fully digitized future for building exteriors—one robotic sweep at a time.
