Arduino solar tracker kit.

The kit uses an arduino uno an arduino sensor shield two 9g metal gear servos and four light detecting resistors to achieve active tracking in real time. The dual axis solar tracker was designed as a project that integrated simple arduino programing and solar energy creation. Let us design a solar tracker using two servo motors a light sensor consisting of four ldrs and arduino uno board. In modern solar tracking systems the solar panels are fixed on a structure that moves according to the position of the sun.

If the difference is greater than a small threshold then the arduino tells the servo to move in that direction to direct the panel towards the light source. Here is the link to download the solar tracker code. Circuit diagram the circuit design of solar tracker is simple but setting. In modern solar tracking systems the solar panels are fixed on a structure that moves according to the position of the sun.

In this project i am going to show you how to make a solar tracker using arduino nano. Since solar energy is renewable it is a good power source especially for developing countries. The solar panel tracker is designed to follow the sun movement so that maximum light intensity hits on the solar panel thus increasing the power efficiency. There is currently one version of the kit available with an.

I m a student in belgium. By geo bruce bruce is on fire follow. I have a wide variety of interests. Let us design a solar tracker using two servo motors a light sensor consisting of four mini photocells and arduino uno board.
