1. Principles and practices¶
This week I worked on defining my final project idea and started to getting used to the documentation process.
Drone HotSpot Detection¶
Objective¶
Build a Quadcopter that can make a 2D mapping, measuring the temperature of a Solar Panel to detect Hot Spot.
What are HotSpots¶
Hot spots are areas of elevated temperature affecting only part of the solar panel. They are a result of a localized decrease in efficiency, which results in lower power output and an acceleration of the materials degradation in the affected area.
