An Improved Deep Learning Framework for In Situ Detection of Geometric Keypoints of Heliostats in Concentrated Solar Power Plants

Technologies
In situ detection of the tracking poses of heliostats can help improve the tracking accuracies of heliostats and reduce the task loads of heliostat calibration in a large-scale concentrated solar power (CSP) plant, as the traditional methods normally ...

Heliostat manufacturing analysis [PDF]

, 1978
Results of a manufacturing cost analysis of heliostats are presented. The two primary objectives are: (1) providing a base for uniform cost analysis, and (2) providing facility and manufacturing cost estimates for planning purposes in the development of a heliostat industry.
