Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the existing drone inspection system generally needs to deploy base stations along the route to ensure uninterrupted signals, which is very costly and time-consuming. During the flight, the drone only patrols along the GPS coordinates set in advance , its independent judgment ability is poor, the farther the UAV is from the base station, the greater the error, the lower the inspection accuracy, and the take-off and landing of the UAV requires manual assistance, which affects the inspection efficiency

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle inspection system and inspection method. The unmanned aerial vehicle inspection system comprises an unmanned aerial vehicle, a control unit, a first vehicle-mounted platform and a second vehicle-mounted platform. The control unit is in communication connection with the unmanned aerial vehicle and is used for controlling the unmanned aerial vehicle to work according to an inspection task and receiving an image signal acquired by the unmanned aerial vehicle. The first vehicle-mounted platform is provided with a control unit, and the first vehicle-mounted platform is movable and provides a first platform for lifting the unmanned aerial vehicle for the unmanned aerial vehicle. The second vehicle-mounted platform is provided with a control unit, and the second vehicle-mounted platform is movable and provides a second platform for lifting the unmanned aerial vehicle for the unmanned aerial vehicle; wherein the unmanned aerial vehicle can take off from the first vehicle-mounted platform or the second vehicle-mounted platform and can land on the first vehicle-mounted platform or the second vehicle-mounted platform. According to unmanned aerial vehicle inspection system and inspection method provided by embodiment of invention, high real-time precision of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the inspection process can be realized, and meanwhile, manual intervention is not needed for rising and falling of the unmanned aerial vehicle, so that inspection efficiency is improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The embodiment of the present invention relates to inspection technology, in particular to an unmanned aerial vehicle inspection system and inspection method. Background technique [0002] In the field of power systems at home and abroad, UAVs are used for inspections of power lines of various voltage levels, and pilot inspections of UAVs are carried out on power lines, which greatly improves the efficiency of line inspection operations. Power lines are deployed in multiple provinces. UAV operation teams have carried out routine operations. The development of UAV technology has brought new power inspection methods, and the application effect of UAVs in power line inspection is very significant. [0003] At present, the existing UAV inspection system generally needs to deploy base stations along the line to ensure uninterrupted signals. The cost is very high and time-consuming. The UAV only patrols along the pre-set GPS coordinate points during the flight. , ...
