چکیده
This paper presents RoboPV, an innovative embedded software for autonomous aerial monitoring of photovoltaic (PV) plants. RoboPV automates monitoring with features like optimal trajectory planning, image processing, and real-time fault detection through four integrated components: boundary area detection, path planning, dynamic processing, and fault analysis. A specialized encoder-decoder deep learning model processes aerial images to identify plant boundaries, while a unique path planning algorithm ensures complete area coverage. During flights, a neural network analyzes images for automatic fault detection. RoboPV also includes decision-making algorithms for various flight conditions, is compatible with low-power micro-computers, and supports the MAVLink protocol for multi-rotor operations. A six-degrees-of-freedom dynamic model was tested in a SIMULINK environment, achieving 93% accuracy in autonomous inspections of large-scale PV installations.
