This is a dream of every student to make something new and interesting so today I am going to teach you that how to make Arduino-based solar tracker. Everyone knows that solar panel output voltage level depends upon on sunlight efficiency if more light photons striking on solar panel it will produce more voltage with maximum efficiency but we don’t know if we fixed and install the solar panel in some
constant position then for some time it will receive strong light but due to change in time sun changing their position and the solar panel not receiving enough light because due to mismatch of their line of sight between sun and solar panel.
Here we used Arduino UNO R3 to make it possible to track the movement of the sun and get the full efficiency from our solar panels.
Components Required:
* 4 Resistor,s of 100k

Hello. Great project. I'm also planning on making a solar tracker, but I it will be with stepper motors that i allready have. I saw another similar project where 2 potentiometers where used to calibrate. Not to change de voltage of the ldr's but simply to read them via analog-in and use the values to calculate the offset in the sketch.
Thanks for this Project. Can you please explain with which Program you have done the curuit Plan? Hope for a answer. Thanks my friend.
