Smart solar panel monitoring system Using image processing

Abstract

In the present study, the dust is being deposited on the Panel where the efficiency and the output power decreases. So in order to increase the efficiency, we are proposing a system based on Image Processing.  Image processing uses a camera and senses the dust which triggers the motor to clean the Solar Panel using Wiper. In addition to this, a webpage is also developed in order to check the Power moni]toring. In case if the automated cleaning process isn't responding, a operating button will also be present in the webpage to clean the Solar Panel manually.
