+**Vertical mowing robot for greening facades**
+Facade greening describes regulated growth of plants on a facade wall. This not only looks
+beautiful, but also serves to improve the air and climate, especially in heavily polluted urban
+areas. At high temperatures, the plants help to cool the walls, and on cold days the plants
+contribute to additional thermal insulation of the walls, and they also reduce noise and dust
+and contribute to an all-round more beautiful ambiance. However, protecting the house wall
+from destruction by root ingrowth is problematic from a constructional point of view. For
+this purpose, a vertical mowing robot is to be developed at the Green FabLab, which moves
+up and down in the gap between the house wall and the supporting structure of the
+greenery to prevent plant growth towards the house.
