IOT Based Dual Axis Solar Tracking with Power Monitoring

Project Code :TEMBMA3113

Objective

The main objective of this project is to track solar panel according to sunlight by using LDRs and shifts the solar panel direction according to sunlight and here also we will monitor the weather condition surrounding to it by using DHT11 and rain sensor.

Abstract

Solar power is the fastest growing means of renewable energy. The project is designed and implemented using simple dual axis solar tracker system. In order to maximize energy generation from sun, it is necessary to introduce solar tracking systems into solar power systems. A dual-axis tracker can increase energy by tracking sun rays from switching solar panel in various directions. This solar panel can rotate in all directions. This dual axis solar tracker project can also be used to sense Current from the solar panel . This system is powered by Arduino, consists of DC motor, Motor Driver Board, Current Sensor.
