The stability of transmission lines is one of the important factors to ensure stable power supply. In this paper, a set of UAV intelligent power line inspection flight control system is designed according to the special flight requirements of UAV in power line inspection operation based on the principle of photogrammetry. The key technologies of the system include UAV flight attitude control, high-precision time synchronization between multiple sensors, defect detection and intelligent diagnosis, airborne sensor calibration, wireless communication, and ground data processing. In this paper, a camera and an on-board computer are innovatively used for real-time image processing and pattern recognition for wire feature acquisition. At the same time, this paper proposes an improved Canny edge detection algorithm combined with image segmentation technology to achieve wire feature extraction and identification. The field test results show that the system can complete the remote control of the UAV and realize the intelligent navigation and inspection of the transmission line UAV.
