ABSTRACT:
A method for moisture detection and removal is provided. The method involves providing discrete feedback as an indication of current moisture accumulation on a surface of a perforated plane, wherein the plane includes at least one moisture sensor, integrated within the surface to form the plane, comparing the indication of current moisture accumulation with a threshold value, when the indication of current moisture accumulation exceeds the threshold value, sending an activation signal to a moisture removal mechanism, removing the current moisture accumulation from an area of the first surface bound by the at least one moisture sensor, and clearing the indication of current moisture accumulation to avoid any unnecessary operation of the moisture removal mechanism.
