What is AI?

The capability of a machine to imitate

intelligent human behavior

AI is the branch of computer

science that is concerned with

the automation of intelligent

behaviorOR simply

APPLICATIONS OF AI

Power Plants

Hospitals and

medicine

Heavy industry

Transportation

Toys and games

Aviation

MOBILE MONITORING OF

POWER SYSTEM The mobile monitoring of power system means the

controlling and maintenance of the plant by various automated means from a safe distance.

To solve this task,

multidisciplinary efforts are needed from fields such as sensing signal processing, control, communication, optimization theory and more recently robotics

The development in robotic maintenance for power systems indicate significant potential of this technological approach.

The mobile monitoring of the power plants includes various sensors like acoustic sensing, fringing electric field sensing and infrared sensing.

AI IN POWER STATIONS

Three types of power plants

• Thermal power plant

• Hydel power plant

• Nuclear power plant

LINESCOUT ROBOT

Replacing human workers for dangerous

and highly specialized operations, such as

live maintenance of high voltage

transmission lines has been a long standing

effort in the power community

Specifications of linescout robotThe three-axis robotic arm has been designed to reach the four conductors of a typical transmission line. one end of the arm is equipped with a point able camera and the other can hold a variety of tools for tasks such as:

•High quality visual inspections

•Infrared inspection

•Checking the condition of splices by measuring their electrical resistance

•Tightening and loosening bolted assemblies

•Temporary repair of broken conductor stands

SNAKE ARM ROBOT

The snake arm can perform a

variety of inspection and

maintenance tasks

Specification of snake arm robot

•User interface

•Actuator pack

Advantages of AI

Jobs

They don’t stop

No risk of harm

Act as helpers

Their function is limitless

Disadvantages of AI

Over reliance of AI

Human feel

Inferior

Misuse

Ethically wrong

The truth is we don’t know what is going to

happen (can’t predict the future), until mankind

eventually gives birth to AI and let it be. Currently

all we can do is speculate, so many of the points

of ‘advantages and disadvantages for artificial

intelligence’ above are just guesses, we might

(and probably) will face an entirely different array

of benefits and problems.
