SOLARCLEAN AUTOBOT: IoT-ENABLED SOLAR PANEL CLEANING ROBOT

Résumé fourni par la source

Dirt and other forms of deposit on solar panel reduce their efficiency in a very dramatic way. Manual cleaning is time consuming as well as dangerous. This work presents SOLARCLEAN AUTOBOT, a robotic system based on the Internet of Things technology to self-clean solar panels. Through the combination of robotics technology, Internet of Things, the robot improves cleaning time table, increases efficiency of the panels, and lowers the expenses. The system also includes environmental sensors and panel condition sensors. Data collected through IoT is sent in real-time for monitoring and controlling purposes. Utilizing IoT technology, the robot is equipped with sensors that relay data such as battery life, location, and panel cleanliness. Intruder repellent technology is increasingly being integrated into solar panel cleaning systems to enhance security. By using ultrasonic waves or motion sensors, these systems deter potential intruders like birds, animals, etc, while ensuring that panels remain free of dirt and debris. This dual functionality not only protects valuable solar investments but also maintains optimal energy production. As renewable energy infrastructure grows, such innovations are essential for safeguarding assets against theft and vandalism.
