Automatic inspection of parabolic-trough solar plants is key to preventing failures that can harm the environment and the production of green energy. In this work, we propose a novel methodology to inspect ball joints in parabolic trough collectors, which is a relevant problem that is not adequately covered in the literature. Images collected by an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle are segmented using deep ...
