hyCLEANER continues to move towards automation with students

Sahara dust and pollen make it clear: cleaning PV modules is important in order to avoid a loss of yield from the PV system. hyCLEANER from Gronau specialises in this task with its robots for solar cleaning. These are already equipped with various intelligent functions such as a radio remote control, an autodrive and included edge detection on all four sides.

But hyCLEANER is not satisfied with this: in order to further automate the robots, eight students from Saxion, FH Münster and Westfälische Hochschule are now taking a closer look at the robots’ water supply as part of the Smart Solution Labs. Their aim is to further optimise the hose routing and continue on the path towards automation. At the kick-off, the students from Germany and the Netherlands curiously scrutinised the properties of the solar cleaning robot and collected initial ideas. This showed once again that the interdisciplinary nature of the students is a particular advantage.

Over the next 8 weeks, the students will be working intensively on sensors and water hose routing.
