IDEAS PROPOSED

A solar tracker control is a system that adjusts the position of a solar panel so that it always points directly at the sun. This maximizes the amount of solar energy captured, improving the efficiency of the system.

Main components:

Solar panel: Captures solar energy.

Support structure: Supports the solar panel and allows its movement.

Tracking system: Detects the position of the sun and sends commands to the drive system.

Drive system: Moves the support structure to adjust the position of the panel.

Types of tracking systems:

Single-axis tracking: The panel moves only on one axis, either horizontally (East-West) or vertically (North-South).

Two-axis tracking: The panel moves on two axes, allowing the sun to be aimed at any position in the sky.
