RE2’s O-AMPP robotic system is capable of both autonomously delivering and installing photovoltaic (PV) modules.
Description:
RE2 Robotics is being recognized as a leader with the development of a robotic solution for autonomous deployment of solar fields. The Outdoor Autonomous Manipulation of Photovoltaic Panels (O-AMPP) robotic system is capable of both autonomously delivering and installing photovoltaic (PV) modules.
The O-AMPP base unit consists of the RE2 Sapien robotic manipulator fixed to the top of a large unmanned ground vehicle (UGV). This platform is capable of maneuvering in the tight spaces between PV arrays to deliver a new set of PV panels to the installation site. Using computer vision, the system registers the target installation location and uses the Sapien arm to lift a PV panel and install it into the array.
