Claim 18:
19. A method for a solar module installation system, comprising:
using the solar module installation system to install a solar tracker, where the solar module installation system includes at least an off-road capable base vehicle with a robotic arm mounted on the off-road capable base vehicle for the solar module installation onto the solar tracker;
using the off-road capable base vehicle and the robotic arm to communicate with each other and to cooperate their movements to proceed to the solar tracker and align with the solar tracker in order for the robotic arm to lift the solar module during an installation of the solar module onto the solar tracker; and
using one or more sensors to determine a weight of one or more pallets of solar modules on a deck of the off-road capable base vehicle to sense when an amount of solar modules on the deck is running low and then a communications module to communicate to send out an automated signal to a material handler to come over to the off-road capable base vehicle with more pallets of solar modules.
