Aiming at the problems of low utilization rate of solar energy and poor anti-interference ability of tracking structure solar energy control system in fixed structure solar energy device, this paper designs a dual axis high-precision solar tracking system based on four quadrant rule. The system adopts two ways: automatic tracking and manual correction. The system uses four photoresistors as detection elements, uses the four quadrant principle to judge the tracking offset angle, and drives two-dimensional two axis stepper motor through STC89C52 processor to achieve the purpose of vertical angle, so as to ensure that the solar panel is always in the state of maximum light receiving surface; When the system is disturbed, it can be judged according to the change of the photosensitive resistance in the energy monitoring system, and the artificial correction can be realized by modulating the size of the divider resistance, which can basically achieve 360° Automatic rotation tracking. In addition, the energy monitoring system based on LabView is designed. Through the real system analysis, it can be concluded that the photoelectric energy conversion rate of the fixed solar device is increased by 32.4%.

Abstract Nowadays, solar energy’s popularity is growing consistently every year, along with the growth of amazing solar technologies, which is considered to be one of the most popular. Non-renewable energy like petrol and gasoline is being replaced with solar energy, which is renewable energy. The main objective of this project is to design and simulate a robot solar system. The robot is developed using Arduino Mega 2560 as the main brain of the system. This system is equipped with a solar tracking system to track the movement of the sun and LDR is used to detect the presence of sunlight. The solar tracker is used to get the maximum efficiency of solar energy and reduce power losses. In addition, the solar tracker can rotate from 0° - 180°, which is the best angle for the solar panel to reach the sunlight. This robot will be attached to the sprinkler system to perform the watering process. This robot is developed for use in the agriculture field to reduce the manpower and cost of the watering process. Three analyses will be conducted in this project such as solar panel analysis, Wi-Fi connectivity analysis and sprinkler system analysis. The result shows the solar panel will gain the highest intensity of the sunlight at 12.00 pm and a sunny day compared to the other time and a cloudy day. The maximum range of Wi-Fi connectivity and the water pump, time used to finish the watering process and watering area will be discussed.

This project aims to develop dual axis solar tracker with IOT monitoring system using Arduino. Generally, solar energy is the technology to get useful energy from sunlight. Solar energy has been used in many traditional technologies over the centuries and has been widely used in the absence of other energy supplies. Its usefulness is widespread when awareness of the cost of the environment and the supply is limited by other energy sources such as fuel. The solar tracking system is the most effective technology to improve the efficiency of solar panels by tracking and following the sun's movement. With the help of this system, solar panels can improve the way of sunlight detection so that more electricity can be collected as solar panels can maintain a sunny position. Thus the project discusses the development of two-axis solar-tracking developers using Arduino Uno as main controller the system. For develops this project, four light-dependent resistors (LDRs) have been used for sunlight detection and a maximum light intensity. Two servo motors have been used to rotate the solar panel according to the sun's light source detected by the LDR. Next a WIFI ESP8266 device is used as an intermediary between device and IOT monitoring system. The IOT monitoring system is a website that functions to store data. The efficiency of this system has been tested and compared with a single axial solar tracker. As a result, the two-axis solar tracking system generates more power, voltage and current.

The main purpose of this paper is to present a novel idea that is based on design and development of an automatic solar tracker system that tracks the Sun's energy for maximum energy output achievement. In this paper, a novel automatic solar tracking system has been developed for small-scale solar energy system. The hardware part and programming part have been concurrently developed in order for the solar tracking system to be possible for it to operate accurately. Arduino Uno R3, Sensor Shield V4 Digital Analog Module, LDR (Light Dependent Resistor), MPU-6050 6DOF 3 Axis Gyroscope has been used for tracking the angular sun movement as shown in Fig. 1. Accelerometer, High-Efficiency Solar Panel, and Tower Pro MG90S Servo Motor have been used for the hardware part. High-level programming language has been embedded in the hardware to operate the tracking system effectively. The tracking system has shown significant improvement of energy delivery to solar panel comparing to the conventional method. All the results will be shown in the full paper. There are three contributions the research presented in this paper which are, i.e. perfect tracking system, the comparison between the static and tracking system and the development of Gyroscope angular movement system which tracks the angular movement of the sun along with another tracking system.

The transfer of electrical energy sources from non-renewable fossil fuels to alternative renewable fuels can be made by utilizing solar energy. The working system of arduino uno solar tracking system for STMIK AUB garden lights is by capturing solar energy through solar panels which are then stored inside the battery where the charging process is controlled by solar charge controller. LDR functions to receive and identify the radiated light quantities which are then forwarded into the arduino uno and processed to drive the DC motor that has become one with the solar panel. If the day begins to darken the LDR will inform the arduino uno and then it will be processed by arduino uno to turn on the DC light.

Abstract The Inner Mongolia has abundant solar energy and electricity resources. Because of the long distance between cities, transmission lines are too long, making it difficult to check lines. In order to solve the problems existing in the inspection work, this paper studies a kind of outdoor inspection vehicle using solar energy, the energy system of the inspection vehicle can independently complete the charge and discharge, so as to realize the inspection task. This paper focuses on the energy autonomy of the on-site inspection vehicle for solar energy. According to the design requirements of the inspection vehicle, appropriate parts are selected to build an energy autonomy inspection system for the inspection vehicle.
