Ground Mockup (Operation 1)
Parabolic Through mockup allows simulating the position of the mirrors that can be found in a Parabolic Through Technology solar field. It will be used to evaluate the performance of the navigation and manipulation algorithms. The mockup consists of two curve mirrors similar to those used in the real Parabolic Through solar field. The structure allows positioning the mirrors in different angles.

Vertical Mockup (Operation 3 and 6)
The Receiver's panel mockup represents partially the panels of teh surface of teh receiver at the GEMASOLAR solar power plant. This mockup is used to evaluate the climbing and the sensor positioning procedures with the climbing robot (e.g. docking process, synchronized winch/axis movement, stepping mechanism, sensor guiding ...).

Validation with the final robot prototypes
A set of scenarios were selected at the beginning of the project in order to validate the results. Experiments related to the abovementioned operations have been performed by the robotic platforms in the scenarios. By means of the experiments, all selected operations have been validated and the feasibility of automated inspection operations has been demonstrated.
