In this project we want to test the energy production improvement of adding a self-powered rotation system to the solar panel. Technology: 3D-modelling and -printing, basic electricity and electronics. Panel base: design a 3D-printing model for a base that will hold the solar panel and the sensor assembly; both to face the same direction.
This motor is getting controlled by Atmega328 microcontroller mounted on an Arduino Uno Board which is in turn mounted on the PCB. The Rotating Solar Panel system scans from one horizon to other to know the current position of sun and hence the position from which the greater solar energy can be harnessed.
The Rotating Solar Panel Using Arduino project aims at charging a 12VDC Battery with the help of a Solar Panel mounted on platform which can rotate with the help of a motor. This motor is getting controlled by Atmega328 microcontroller mounted on an Arduino Uno Board which is in turn mounted on the PCB.
The servo will try to move the solar panel in the position where both LDR’s will have the same resistance means where the same amount of light will fall on both the resistors and if the resistance of one of the LDR will change then it rotates towards lower resistance LDR. Check the Demonstration Video at the end of this Article.
Check the various circuits based on LDR here. The two LDR’s are placed at the two sides of the solar panel and the Servo Motor is used to rotate the solar panel. The servo will move the solar panel towards the LDR whose resistance will be low, mean towards the LDR on which light is falling, that way it will keep following the light.
