Problems solved by technology

However, the above two detection methods have their own limitations: manual observation requires a lot of labor and the accuracy is not high. At present, there are some defects in the production process that are difficult to detect with the naked eye. With the increase of production, the efficiency of manual detection is difficult to improve and It is difficult to achieve consistent detection standards for everyone; infrared image detection is greatly affected by the surrounding environment
Therefore, the traditional solar surface defect detection method is increasingly unable to adapt to the increasingly complex production process and higher defect requirements.
Therefore, in order to overcome the limitations of traditional detection methods, it is necessary to study new detection methods and equipment for surface defects of solar cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of image processing, and in particular relates to a detection system and method for surface defects of solar panels. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, with the depletion of non-renewable energy pollution and other issues, environmental protection issues have attracted more and more attention, and the development of renewable energy is already a future trend. It is estimated that by 2030, renewable energy will account for more than 30% of the global energy mix. As an important part of renewable energy, solar cells are expected to usher in rapid development. With the continuous development of technology, various solar panel manufacturers reduce the thickness of silicon wafers to reduce costs. At present, the thickness of silicon wafers is generally on the order of 100 microns. This method is easy to cause defects such as cracks and missing corners in the product. The pass rate of products is one of the key fact...
