METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MATERIAL PROCESSING

摘要

An apparatus (50) processes a surface of an inhabitable structure. The apparatus (50) includes a laser base unit (300) adapted to provide laser lig ht to an interaction region, the laser light removing material from the structure. The laser base unit (300) includes a laser generator (310) and a laser head (1200) coupled to the laser generator (310). The laser head (200) is adapted to remove the material from the interaction region, thereby providing reduced disruption to activities within the structure. The apparat us (50) further includes an anchoring mechanism (1110) adapted to be releasably coupled to the structure and releasably coupled to the laser head (1200). Th e apparatus (50) further includes a controller (500) electrically coupled to t he laser base unit (300). The controller (500) is adapted to transmit control signals to the laser base unit (300) in response to user input.
