Mechanical Cleaning Controller
Coordinated Mechanical Cleaning Schedule and Execution
Controller coordinating mechanical/gas/ultrasonic cleaning activations across protected surfaces with priority scheduling and resource management.
Purpose
Controller coordinating mechanical/gas/ultrasonic cleaning activations across protected surfaces with priority scheduling and resource management.
Context
Child of L2-DST-CLEAN within the Lunar Ark system
Principles
- ▸Per-surface cleaning schedule based on accumulation
- ▸Coordination with L3-DST-EDS-CTRL active cleaning
- ▸Gas inventory management with L1-WMS
- ▸Resource priority during simultaneous demand
- ▸Authenticated DTN updates
Typical implementations
- ▸NASA cFS scheduling framework
- ▸Industrial preventive-maintenance scheduling
- ▸ISRU operations coordination
Lunar considerations
- ▸Long-mission ML model evolves with experience
- ▸Coordination with L1-MNT for non-routine cleaning
- ▸Telemetry archived to L1-DVT
