Relative misalignments estimation in on-tracker CPV modules through image processing

Abstract

This work uses a validated method to measure misalignments between optic units in CPV modules indoors (using a camera) to measure misalignments between modules outdoors. Since the measurement outdoors has different condition than indoors, acquired images require an enhancement, reached through image processing. A case study for 3 modules with known misalignments is presented for the method validation.
