Experimental results (IMAGE) Optica Caption Researchers developed a new system that can detect defects in silicon solar panels in full and partial sunlight. Shown are images acquired under low (left), medium (middle) and high (right) sunlight irradiance. The top row (a, b, c) were acquired using a traditional system that doesn’t work in sunlight, and the bottom row (d, e, f) with the new system and defect display algorithm.
