Arduino solar panel tracker.

We hope you found this project useful. Updated servo controlled light tracking solar panel platform. I adapt it for 2 ldr. A single axis solar tracker improves solar output by around 25 and a dual axis tracker by around 40 according to this article on altestore.

The proposed prototype is based on a dual axis solar tracker controlled with arduino uno which is an open source prototyping platform based on easy to use hardware and software. Hi thank you very much for the idea. Según el montaje se puede modificar must be modified according to the assembly include include la libreria servo h servo horizontal. 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.

Se nombra el servo horizontal int ldrl 1. In flat panel photovoltaic pv applications trackers are used to minimize the angle of incidence between the incoming light and a photovoltaic panel. Drop a comment below if you have any doubts or queries. This solar tracker control system is designed to take light measurements from the east and west left and right side of the solar panel and determine which way to move the panel to point it directly at the source of the light.

Pin de la fotoresistencia left int ldrr 2. We have designed a single axis solar tracking system. Dual axis solar trackers uses the motor to move the solar panel in all four directions north south east west. The circuit design of solar tracker is simple but setting up the system must be done carefully.

This increases the amount of energy produced by the photovoltaic array. Pin de la fotoresistencia right int delaypot 4. In this project we are going to show you how to make an arduino based solar tracker using ldr servo motor. The pwm inputs of two servos are given from digital pins 9 and 10 of arduino.

Finally we have completed interfacing dual axis solar tracker arduino project using ldr servo motors. Now you can use this project to track the solar panel and increase its efficiency by 40. Four ldrs and four 100kω resistors are connected in a voltage divider fashion and the output is given to 4 analog input pins of arduino. A solar tracker is a device that orient photovoltaic array toward the sun.

Use an arduino two small servo motors with light sensing photo resistors to steer a solar panel towards the sun. The solar tracker can be controlled automatically with the help of lightdependent resistor ldr sensors or manually using a potentiometer. There are basically two types of arduino sun trackers.
