Systems and method for painting using drones

A method for performing painting using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the method comprising:

• performing an analysis of a structure using the UAV to capture a plurality of images of the structure and a plurality of measurements of the structure, the UAV comprising a plurality of arms extending outward from the main body, a plurality of nozzles, a microprocessor, a comparator coupled to the microprocessor, a memory, a transceiver, at least one camera, a bump map sensor configured to determine texture, roughness and curvature of a surface of a building, at least one software module, a plurality of paint containers, an IR sensor configured to determine the wetness of paint, a spectroscopic sensor configured to analyze paint composition and application, a plurality of structured light emitters configured to test surface deformities, lidar, and a plurality of blades for flight, each of the plurality of blades positioned on a corresponding arm of the plurality of arms, at least one software module, wherein each of the plurality of paint containers is positioned on an underside of the main body away from the plurality of blades and in flow communication with a corresponding nozzle of the plurality of nozzles;
• laying a plurality of beacons by the UAV;
• receiving a plurality of commands at the UAV from a user computing device in communication with the unmanned aerial vehicle, the user computing device comprising a software module to monitor usage;
• generating a painting boundary by the UAV;
• preparing the structure for painting by the UAV, wherein the comparator is configured to compare a first plurality of images taken by the at least one camera of the unmanned aerial vehicle before and a second plurality of images taken by the at least one camera of the unmanned aerial vehicle after a cleaning protocol of a building to be painted to ensure that the cleaning protocol achieves a desired result without damage;
• painting the structure by the UAV to create a painted structure;
• and
• analyzing the painted structure by the UAV.
