System and method for radiative cooling for data centers

A method for heat dissipation comprising:

• receiving, at a computer processor, one or more images of at least a portion of the sky;
• determining, by the computer processor, if there exists one or more aim portions of the sky, based in part on the one or more images of at least a portion of the sky comprising three-dimensional coordinates;
• using artificial intelligence to determine:
• one or more portions in the one or more images of the at least a portion of the sky where the sky is cloudless or thinly clouded;
• and
• one or more portions in the one or more images of the at least a portion of the sky that require a minimum of movement from one or more heat dissipation surfaces different from the one or more portions where the sky is cloudless or thinly clouded;
• determining the one or more aim portions of the sky that correspond to the one or more portions in the one or more images that require a minimum of movement from the one or more heat dissipation surfaces;
• and
• based on the one or more aim portions of the sky, controlling, by the computer processor, the one or more heat dissipation surfaces to be moved in three-dimensional space based on the determination, such that heat is radiated toward the one or more aim portions of the sky.

A system for heat dissipation comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor configured to:
• receive at least one visual representation of at least a portion of sky;
• determine, based on the at least one visual representation of the at least a portion of sky, a mask distinguishing between clouded and cloudless portions of the sky;
• employ artificial intelligence to determine:
• one or more portions in the determined mask of the visual representation where the sky is cloudless or thinly clouded;
• and
• one or more portions in the mask of the visual representation that require a minimum of movement from one or more heat dissipation surfaces different from the one or more portions where the sky is cloudless or thinly clouded;
• determine the one or more aim portions of the sky that correspond to the one or more portions in the mask of the visual representation that require a minimum of movement from the one or more heat dissipation surfaces;
• and
• controlling the one or more heat dissipation panels to move in three-dimensional space based on the determination to point toward the one or more aim portions of the sky, if there exists the one or more aim portions of the sky.
