The microcontroller arduino mode uno was programmed by using c language while the track of sun light processing was implemented by using light depending resistor ldr chip ic h bridge and.
Sun tracking solar panel using arduino pdf.
A seminar project report arduino based solar tracking system.
In modern solar tracking systems the solar panels are fixed on a structure that moves according to the position of the sun.
It consists of only this components ldr module l293d motor driver module dc motor 30 rpm solar panel.
It searches for the brightest light source like the sun.
Sun tracking solar panel using arduino project is based on arduino controller board which controls the various activities of the project.
Let us design a solar tracker using two servo motors a light sensor consisting of four ldrs and arduino uno board.
In this article we are going to make a sun tracking solar panel using arduino in which we will use two ldrs light dependent resistor to sense the light and a servo motor to automatically rotate the solar panel in the direction of the sun light advantage of this project is that solar panel will always follow the sun light will always face towards the sun to get charge all the time and can.
Circuit diagram the circuit design of solar tracker is simple but setting.
Also since a panel which is incident to the sun can gather more amount of solar energy the solar panel is attached to a motor.
A solar panel is used to harness solar energy.
The aim of this solar tracker project is to keep the solar photovoltaic panel perpendicular to the sun throughout the year in order to make it more efficient.
When the stick on top is righted to the sun or the brightest point the four ldrs get the same amount of light on them.
The dual axis solar photovoltaic panel takes astronomical data as reference and the tracking system has the capability to always point the solar array toward the sun and can be installed in various regions with minor.
