Problem Definition
A solar radiation tracker is a device for orienting a solar photovoltaic panel towards the sun.
One well-known type of solar tracker is the heliostat.
This research proposes a design that utilises the solar panel itself as a sensor.
Project Objectives
Design a more reliable and efficient dual axis solar tracking system.
Reduce cost.
Make electricity accessible to remote areas.
Research Methodology
Research from the internet and available textbooks.
Consultation with resource personnel
Consultation with lecturers
Use of computer programming and simulation Software
Use of UMaT Tech. Prep Lab.
