a The real-time intelligent monitoring system. b Photographs of SHIS on an in-flight UAV (DJI MINI 2 SE). Capacitance signal response of SHIS during c frost accumulation, and d icing and deicing progress (at −15 °C). The orange section of the figure represented room temperature. The green section of the figure represented the start of freezing. The purple section of the figure represented a temperature of −15 °C. The SHIS’s monitoring of e simulated rain and f icing in cold (−12 °C) and windy (~15 km/h) environments.
