Concept

The main idea of the project is designing a system that responses to the sun direction. A solar panel acts the most efficiently when its position changes according to the location of the sun and remains perpendicular to the source of light. In this project two light sensors (LDR) are situated on two sides of the solar panel, and a servo motor is rotates based on the data that is sent by the light sensors. Therefore, the position of the attached solar panel to the motor changes toward the the LDR that received more light.
