Solar panel cleaning system based on machine vision

Abstract

The invention discloses a solar panel cleaning system based on machine vision. The method comprises the following steps: step 1, collecting on-site solar panel photos, and uploading the photos to an upper computer through WIFI; step 2, performing multi-dimensional feature vector extraction on the photosby an upper computer program; step 3, calculating the Euclidean distance between the multi-dimensional feature vector and each predetermined clustering center; step 4, comparing the minimum Euclidean distance with a predetermined threshold value of the category; step 5, enabling acleaning robotto complete the task and feed back the task to the upper computer; step 6, enabling the upper computer to send the completed signal to a database through WIFI; and step 7, enabling the database to clear away a to-do task and check whether the to-do task exists at the moment, if yes, sending the data to the upper computer program again, executing the step 2 and otherwise, finishing the whole closed-loop process. The cleaning of the solar panel is effectively realized, and power generation efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the application field of clean energy based on solar energy, in particular to a solar panel cleaning system based on machine vision. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of society, the demand for electricity in all walks of life is growing almost exponentially. The traditional power generation methods can no longer meet the demand. At the same time, considering the decreasing renewable resources of the earth, it is very meaningful to develop clean energy. The definition of clean energy is: clean, efficient and systematic application of energy technology systems, such as hydropower, wind power, solar energy, biomass (biogas), geothermal energy (including ground and water sources) and sea tide energy. Among them, solar power generation does not have any emissions and noise, and the application technology is mature, safe and reliable. At the same time, 76% of my country's land is abundant in sunlight a...

Problems solved by technology

For the first cleaning method, the cleaning time is long, the personnel are not easy to manage, the water resources are wasted, the safety factor is low, and the personnel stepping on the solar panel is likely to cause hidden cracks; for the second cleaning method, it is very important for the installation of solar panels on site. The spacing is required and the cleaning is uneven; the third cleaning method requires an intelligent control strategy, but now it is generally literacy cleaning, which also brings a certain amount of waste of resources

[0004] Aiming at the problem of solar panel cleaning in the photovoltaic industry, domestic patents related to the solution to this problem include "A Solar Panel Intelligent Snow and Dust Removal Robot and Its Control Method" (201810564474.7), which uses snow plow shovels, disc brushes, and rope winding mechanisms and tracked chassis to clean the snow on the solar panel, but the relevant control strategy is not mentioned in the patent. Although the robot can save manpower and financial resources, it must have a precise control strategy

Similarly, the National Invention Patent "Solar Panel Cleaning Robot" (201810276806.1) and the National Invention Patent "Solar Panel Cleaning Robot" (201410554467.0) are both designed for the structure of the robot, but there is no mention of the relevant control system, which shows that , the development of a robot-controlled solar panel cleaning system needs to be solved urgently
