Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of intersection of intelligent operation and maintenance of photovoltaic power stations and edge computing, and in particular relates to a dual-modal dynamic detection method and system for photovoltaic panels based on a lightweight edge intelligent box. Background Art
[0002] The patent number disclosed in the comparative document 1 is: CN113706458A. The core technical defect is that the problem of low-altitude small target recognition has not been solved. The patent number disclosed in the comparative document 2 is: CN114519587A. The core technical defect is that the infrared detection has not optimized the low-resolution sensor. The patent number disclosed in the comparative document 3 is: CN120029306A. The core technical defect is that the model has not been optimized for photovoltaic scenarios.
[0003] Pain points of existing technologies:
[0004] Hardware limitations: The power consumption of the transmission industrial computer solution is greater than 60W, which cannot meet the drone's endurance requirements. The dual-model inference latency of devices such as Jetson Nano is greater than 200ms, causing detection lag.
[0005] Algorithm flaws: General object detection models (such as YOLOv5) have a false detection rate of 35% for photovoltaic reflective scenes. Infrared hot spot detection directly upsamples to 416x416 resolution, resulting in a detail loss rate exceeding 70%.
[0006] System fragmentation: Visible light and infrared detection require separate flights, which is inefficient (two flights / power station). There is a lack of a spatiotemporal alignment mechanism, making it impossible to locate the hot spot corresponding to the photovoltaic panel. Summary of the Invention
