SUN TRACKING SOLAR PANEL
Introduction
The main objective of this project is to track the sun and rotate the solar panel accordingly, to receive sunlight to the fullest extent always during the day time.
This movement is achieved by interfacing a stepper motor to the solar panel that changes its direction according to the positioning of the sun.
This is achieved using time reference that controls the movement time for 12 hours by a program written in such a way that for every given time the solar panel faces to the sun to generate maximum power which is stored in batteries and future use.
EMBEDDED SYSTEMS
Definition for :- EMBEDDED SYSTEMS
A combination of hardware and software which together
form a component of a larger machine.
An example of an embedded system is a microprocessor that
controls an automobile engine.
An embedded system is designed to run on its own without human intervention, and may be required to respond to events in real time.
