Design of Intelligent Cable Patrol Robot in Substation
In this paper,a controllable robot is introduced to replacing the traditional artificial patrol and unmanned aerial vehicle patrol.During patrolling along cables,robot can avoid obstacles on its own,and send data back to the ground control system to fulfill its mission.This robot is based on 51 single chip micro-com-puter as the main control system,equipped with hardware devices such as a camera,an infrared detector and a sensor,which can work continuously and stably under variously complex conditions of power grid,and it also features high reliability,strong adaptability,anti-jamming capability and cost-efficiency for operation and ma-intenance.The robot mentioned in this paper can,at the same time,improve monitoring and issue alerts to en-hance intelligence,automation and informatization,which is an important part of realizing intelligent grid.
