[0002] In recent years, solar energy, as a promising renewable energy source, has been widely developed. Photovoltaic energy is a form of solar energy that plays an indispensable role in curbing the global warming problem, reducing the use and emissions of fossil fuels. According to the latest announcement of the World Energy Organization, the global photovoltaic installed capacity and power generation are increasing day by day. With the rapid development of the photovoltaic industry and the rapid growth of the photovoltaic installed capacity, the service life and safety of photovoltaic arrays have received more and more attention.

[0003] Photovoltaic power stations cover a large area and are mainly distributed in wild natural environments such as deserts, wastelands, and water surfaces. Photovoltaic modules are placed in harsh outdoor environments and are exposed to wind, sun, and rain all year round, resulting in serious problems of faults and defects. Real-time control and detection of the power generation system and daily maintenance often require high labor costs, and there are disadvantages such as strong subjectivity and single inspection means, which are difficult to meet the increasing inspection needs. To ensure the efficient operation of photovoltaic power stations, an unmanned intelligent inspection method is urgently needed. Intelligent defect detection and positioning technology can realize diversified inspection modes, and at the same time give full play to the advantages of high precision, flexible response, and all-weather of robots, meeting the requirements of high-frequency unmanned inspections, which is of great significance for improving the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic power stations and ensuring the safe and efficient operation of large-scale photovoltaic power stations.
