Application of UAV + AI Intelligent Inspection Technology in Urban Lighting Maintenance
Abstract：To address the issues of high cost, low efficiency, and difficulty in supervision in traditional urban lighting maintenance, this paper constructs an intelligent inspection system that integrates UAVs, artificial intelligence, and edge computing. By using UAVs equipped with AI terminals for data collection, machine vision algorithms are employed to automatically identify facility defects, and the 'end-edge-cloud' collaborative architecture is utilized to achieve full-process management from task planning, intelligent analysis to closed-loop disposal. The results show that the system has significantly improved operational efficiency in Jiangyin City, with inspection efficiency increasing by more than 50% and comprehensive costs decreasing by about 60%, effectively achieving the digital and intelligent transformation of urban lighting maintenance, providing a scalable technical path for the industry.
