Summary
Installing solar panels on tracking systems can require significant manual labor and increase installation time. This project addresses that challenge by working with Array Technologies to design a scaled prototype of a robotic system that assists with panel placement. The system includes a drivebase for mobility, a robotic arm for handling panels and a control system designed for scalability. The goal is to reduce physical strain on workers and improve efficiency during solar panel installation while supporting future system development.
