Project 47: Solar Tracker

Solar Tracker

Problem Statement

Solar energy systems are often faced with inefficiencies due to fixed solar panel positioning. The angle of sunlight varies throughout the day, and maximizing energy collection requires tracking the sun’s position to ensure optimal panel orientation.

Description

This project involves the development of a solar tracker system that automatically adjusts the position of solar panels to follow the sun's movement. The tracker system uses sensors to detect sunlight intensity and adjusts the panel's orientation to ensure maximum energy absorption, improving the overall efficiency of solar power systems.
